Wow. First time I've ever had a panic attack ...

May 21, 2009 12:19

You know what the frustrating thing is about a panic attack? All the symptoms are like a heart attack's, and you can't tell the difference if you've never had either.

There was a billing issue with my college yesterday--as usual, the college tries to pull a BOHICA (army guys will get that term), as well as various frustrations (for example: Ragnarok Wisdom #400 and my inability to do anything for it, and my dead desktop computer). It almost looked like my college refused payment for the summer semester and had dropped my classes.

I've already been worn out by everything that has gone on this year as well as my general frustrations with this college dragging out my attempt to earn a simple two-year degree with one screw-over after another.

I think this might have set off the panic attack. For a while I wasn't sure what I was having, because the pressure and the pain in my chest felt too strong to just be a panic attack. Then again, one of the symptoms of a panic attack is, apparently, thinking you're having a heart attack. Go figure.

Thankfully, it didn't turn out to be anything serious. I think I'm alright, and when I contacted the business office (as well as check up on my enrollment status), it looks like it's fixable. They haven't dropped my classes.

I just hope they don't try and pull a fast one. They said to come in next Tuesday to clear up the billing issue, but so help me, if Administrations decides to go "Oops! You didn't clear this up in time, so we dropped your courses~ ^.^" before then, I'm going to rage.

health issues, college issues
