First panic attack?

[Charlie the wallflower]

So I was sitting in school in the library, I had no sleep the night before and had a pile of work that I needed to get done in little time, now normally Im used to this, but today was different, my heart was racing so fast and I just couldnt talk to anyone, I could hardly breathe, I was actually crying and had to try really hard to stop myself. Some things were weird though, I noticied when I felt that way I couldnt open my hand fully (probably nothing) I also felt kinda like I was the only one in the room and everyone was stuck on pause or something.

But yea, do you think this was a panic attack or a sign of something devolping? Or a one off? I have no idea

It sounds like a panic attack, I get them sometimes. Definately the heart racing and crying. It sounded as if you were overwhelmed and not to mention sleep deprived. If it continues, or seems like it could be far more serious tell your parents. If it is a just a panic attack, which to me sounds like it, take deep breaths and try counting in your head.
