Anybody get random, constant anxiety attacks — become breathless and generally afraid, as of nothing? I usually get horrendous social anxiety from social contact, which is explicable and understandable. But this is a different sort of anxiety

All the time. The worst instance landed me in the emergency room because of heavy breathing. I thought I was slowly dying. The moment the ER doctor told me my vitals were good and it was likely just a panic attack, the breathing difficulties immediately dissipated. Often it's all in the head.

Last night my anxiety about having to possibly suffer through a couple more decades of my miserable life got so bad that I had to take 2 benadryl pills to knock myself out.

Absolutely. I didn't know that I had anxiety attacks for a long time because people often mistake them for panic attacks and generally I felt I wasn't suffering enough. Turns out, you don't exactly beat SI by being emotionally stable.
