Hi All,
I woke up last night to a fog horn from a boat - I live off the coast and right by The Thames, but the Fog Horn wasn't the only thing to my surprise.
I was feeling dizzy all over, and it felt as though I was losing consciousness; I was pretty much fighting to stay awake. I was numb on my head, and couldn't talk - I tried shouting but I literally couldn't. It was though I was trapped in a body that wouldn't work; I was thinking clear, but was so dizzy, trembly and couldn't feel anything - whenever I tried to move I would just fail.
I honestly felt as though I was going to die if I shut my eyes! In the end, I managed to work my way up and I through my glass of water over me - it took a good 15 minutes for me to get back to normal. I tried looking in the mirror in my bathroom, and I was honestly frightened of my own reflection. I haven't slept since because I'm frightened that I won't wake up!
I've never, even experienced anything like that - it was awful. I do smoke a lot, don't exercise regularly and am overweight, and I'm also 18. I have a lot of stress at the moment, so could that be it?
Any help would be highly appreciated. I'm quite worried as to whats going to happen tonight. My first step is to lose some weight, and to definitely give up the fags. I haven't had one since.
Sorry for the lengthy story! Huge thanks in advance!
