I don't know what to do anymore. I got a sudden panic attack in church 2 weeks ago Sunday August 14, 2016. Rushing to ambulance in the car with my dad I felt like I was dying. A series of EKG and vital tests from the ambulance and ER (Dallas Regional) have told me it's just anxiety/panic attacks. My symptoms vary and include some or all of: tightness of chest, slow/fast heart rate (heart palpations), tingly sensations in my left neck, jaw, and head, and terrible fear. I got admitted to Children's hospital that week for 3 days and they did bloodwork and a CAT scan of my chest, they discovered I have an anomaly where my right coronary artery comes out the wrong spot. My primary doctor and the doctors and cardiologist at the hospital said that anomaly wasn't the cause of my symptoms. Keep in mind I had terrible constipation the week before this all happened and that gave me chest and abdominal pains, but it wad relieved by the end of the week (I ate too much candy or something). I had eaten lots of sugar and slept late prior to that Sunday so when I felt the pain in my heart/chest in the middle of church, I foolishly thought I was having some type of cardiac issue. There was a tingling in my jaw and head and then my heart raced. So that is what led to the series of emergency and hospital visits the week of August 14-20. I ruled out anything making me anxious in church until that feeling came. I'm sure it's a panic attack that took hold of me out of the blue. I'm 16 and never in my life had I experienced the event before, occasionally in my life my heart would race for no reason but I ruled it as normal and I usually had a bunch of caffeine and lack of sleep with that. This I discussed in the many ER's and with the doctors and cardio. They said all that was fine. The issue is how I've tried to cope with the ongoing panic attacks since Sunday the 14th. I could not sleep at all that week because of my racing heart (at home) and the pulse monitor (when in the hospital). I was released from Children's on Wednesday of that week, went back to the Dallas ER Friday morning and they transfered me over to Medical City. They told me the same stuff, cardio was fine and it's just anxiety/panic attack. The doctor there out of kindness prescribed a 15 MG bottle of clonozepam (Klonopin) to help with my anxiety and suggested I start with half a milligram with that being before I sleep. I had a terrible panic attack on the way to getting the medication that afternoon and took a whole MG which kicked in 30-60 minutes later (I guess clona is a slow action benzo) and I felt extremely drowsy and couldn't walk right. The drowsiness wore off after some hours close to 8 pm and I wasn't feeling the symptoms of my anxiety although my dad insisted I sleep, so I went to bed but woke at 4 am and my dad gave me half a MG and I slept until 9 am that Saturday last week. Keep in mind my dad has been upset with me since this all started because of the costs to the trips to the ER, hospital and how I'm reacting to my attacks. School wasn't a stressor that contributed to the initial event but I started school the 22nd, I'm dual enrolled meaning while still a highschool student I take full time classes on this community college campus. I know the work load is heavy but I wasn't worried because I had taken summer classes there this year and did well. I saw a psychiatrist only one time and that was the 2nd day I was in the hospital at Childrens. She taught me breathing techniques but lately they are failing. My prescription of 15 MG says take it 3 times a day but I have been irregularly taking half a MG whenever I feel an attack coming (at first I would take it in the morning before school). I know I'm being really confusing but I'm so lost. I don't want to be hooked on this clonozepam and my dad has been yelling I shouldn't be taking it regularly. Sometimes when I do take half a MG the feelings return in less than 8 hours (i deduced since the prescription calls for 3 times a day that's how long it's supposed to last). I haven't taken and clona since last evening around 6 but close to 11 pm and all the way til now I feel even worse, the symptoms hit me hard and I feel sharp chest pains that scare me. I'm so conscious of my heart stopping. I even called 911 today and they said I was fine (the ambulance did). I also had thoughts of suicide in the last 2-3 days. My dad isn't being real supportive and I desperately need a solution to my panic attack issue. I reached out here I believe yesterday but wasn't as organized and specific. Oh and I saw a neurologist the first week of the issue and he claimed i can injured my neck in church and prescribed gabapentin which was totally wrong and I only took a single pill of it. This first week of school was a trainwreck because of my panic attacks causing me not to concentrate in class. (this week was just prep too, my actual college courses start on Monday). Yesterday I had to step out of history because the attack almost came full force while in class. While outside I took half a MG and sat for 20 minutes. I'm coming to a close of the 2nd week of this issue and it's driving me crazy. Being in a room full of people can sometimes trigger it, going up stairs ALWAYS does, and I can't get my mind off this which I know just makes it persist. My dad just doesn't know what to do and neither do I. Because of the cardiac anomaly they found the first week, I have a check up with the cardiologist September 13. I don't feel I can make it and going on like this is awful. I keep thinking I will die. I don't want to be hooked on amxiety meds. My mom is a nurse but she isn't helping that much in my opinion. I'm putting my life out here and I'm sure anyone reading what I've been experiencing since August 14 would advise I seek therapy and other types of treatment, maybe even a different medicine/dosage. My phone, TV ,resting, pacing all fail to calm me down. I think half the time I'll die of a heart attack and the other times I feel constant dread from these attacks. From what I've mentioned, what should I do? Im so scared, even now as I type this the attack is coming full force. Forgive my disorganization, I'm just spilling my mind since 2 weeks ago.... Could I have or be on the fast track to developing panic disorder? This came at the wrong time now that school is in session
