I have been hyperventilating for over a week now. I don't just have panic attacks for no reason. Something triggers them. Something is seriously wrong with me. Right now I think I have a hyperactive thyroid. My mom has that so it's quite a possibility. I need a blood test to find out I think. Only problem being I don't have health insurance. So today I had to apply for medical assistance. Let me just say, it's not fun walking around downtown while having a panic attack. People either look at you like you're going to die or like you're a circus sideshow. Anyways, I'm probably going to get it but who knows how long that will take. Then I'll have to wait for test results. I can't live like this for that much longer. If it didn't interfere with everything I do, I might be able to. I've been looking at a lot of medical websites and trying to make some sort of self-diagnosis since my doctor doesn't seem to listen to me. He didn't listen to the symptoms and just put me on more medication to calm me down. I wish someone would listen and believe me about this. Why would I want to feel like this? I can't do anything, can't go anywhere. I feel okay for maybe an hour a day.
Since of course I couldn't go to the Hawthorne Heights and Plain White T's show last night, my sister stalked the Plain White T's and me their autographs. The lead singer even wrote my name. I ♥ for that.
Peace.
