Why am I so afraid?!


Question:

Why am I so afraid?

I woke up and I was afraid to open my eyes, my head was spinning and I couldn't feel my pillow, like I was floating. I kept trying to push my head into the pillow and it wouldn't touch. I realized my mouth was open and I couldn't close it. I kept pushing and pushing, and I finally rolled myself into the wall. If I could open my eyes at that point, I was still to afraid to attempt it. I pulled another pillow over my face, and just wanted to hide myself. I wanted to run, but I was afraid to step into the floor. My heart was pounding, and I finally got enough courage to run to my door and throw it open. I've been crying for the past hour and I don't know why. My hands are shaking and I'm terrified of absolutely nothing. Nothing feels real, like it's just some kind of dream, and nothing is making sense. I'm sick to my stomach, too. I've been afraid for the past couple of days, on and off. Just random...What's happening to me?

I'm a month from being 16, and I'm not taking any medicines. And when I was still sleeping, I could hear my baby sister talking non-stop. she just kept talking, like she was right beside me. And I knew she wasn't really there, but I didn't want to open my eyes and see her for some reason..

It sounds like a panic attack. Nothing to be ashamed of as a lot of people have them.
