Hi, I really don't know much about this, but it certainly sounds like a panic attack! Ive gotten them before! If you can, I would get checked out by a doctor to rule out any physical issue! Then it may be time to seek out a mental health provider! Sorry I'm not a better help! Best wishes!

I have had similar issues through out my life. I the 70's when they would test the emergency alert sirens outside I would panic even knowing it was a test. I would suggest talking to a shrink. That's what I have done and they can see if you have OCD, ADHD or just suffer panic attacks.  Many people over look their mental health but it is as important if not more than your physical health. I am battling both today, day 8 for me. Mentally I am stronger than I have been in 15 months. Physically I am in some good pain. I am enjoying the freedom from depression now and dealing with the pain. I am happy. I hope this helps. I know how you are feeling and I know you can be set free from that. I am today.
