I’ve been dealing with constant acid reflux, anxiety, and full-blown panic attacks for about 16 months now. It’s a nightmare. I constantly feel like I’m going to just vanish, or worse, like I’m about to have a heart attack, a stroke, or just stop breathing entirely. I’ve had my heart, brain, and lungs checked out by specialists, and everything comes back perfect—turns out I just inherited this nasty GERD from my grandpa. Now, whenever it starts raining, I get this suffocating feeling like there’s zero oxygen in the air. Right now, I’m on Valium and 0.5mg of Xanax. They help, sure, but they also knock me out completely. Anyone else dealing with this kind of madness? Honestly, I don't trust doctors anymore; they basically tried to tell me I was making up the pain just to get me sent to a psych ward. For 16 months straight, my stomach and gut have been killing me without a single break. lp
