I’m feeling heavier than iron
my chest, my arms, my legs
feel numb
it feels impossible to breathe
like i am deep under the water
and i could hear my body sinking
the lungs,
now slowly filling up with liquid
no hope.
just death in sight
my tongue is stuck,
my hands are tight,
i feel the weight
of my mistakes
i just so desperately want
to get some air and breathe again
but not this time,
my demon says
as I am drowning
once again
my chest, my arms, my legs
feel numb
it feels impossible to breathe
like i am deep under the water
and i could hear my body sinking
the lungs,
now slowly filling up with liquid
no hope.

this is how a panic attack feels for me, haven’t had one in a while, but it used to be the norm when I was younger. If you’re going through tough times, just know they never last. I am doing much better now, and hopefully you can take this as a message of hope. Things do get better, just hang in there, stop running from your feelings, the only way out, is through.
