Medical Problems

[the171]

I had a really bad panic attack while I was on a retreat for the diocese. We were just getting back into the dorms after prayer, I was talking with a friend. I had had breathing problems all day and those are something I deal with all the time. Well, i just started freaking out. She was going to get Mrs. T, the diocese youth ministry coordinator. I was trying to tell her no because I thought I was ok. She went to get her anyway. Thank God she didn't listen to me. Mrs. T came in and it lasted for about 10-15 minutes. At least that's what they told me. I'm still trying to remember parts of it. From what they told me, I was hyper ventilating. I blacked out for a minute or so. I remember I couldn't hear what was going on around me. Can't remember a lot of it. I was shaking like crazy and I couldn't speak or understand a lot of what people were saying.

Well, i am going to the doctor this week. This could possibly be a reason for Carmel not to accept me. I am really scared. I am trying to control my breathing still, but the "breathing problems" or whatever they are won't go away. Please pray for me.
