You get shaky, sweaty, and your mind starts racing. You feel like other people can see, and wonder what is wrong with you. And the worst part? It just keeps getting worse. It is getting more intense, and happening more often. It feels like you barely get through the day, and feel exhausted. You fall into bed, and then there you are.... wired and tired. Your head is spinning all night and once you fall asleep your alarm goes off and you have to do it all again the next day. It feels like every decision is impossible. You talk it all out, think you've got a plan about work, school, or your relationship and then it fails.
