Entering my late 40s now and I've been dealing with panic attacks sometimes when I do a max effort. I did one yesterday and shut down the effort after about 10 seconds, and while my heart rate was coming down I went into a full blown panic attack. All I thought about was falling over dead in the middle of the road. When I don't think about it it doesn't happen. I have actually been avoiding doing max effort work because of this. It is a horrible feeling and unless you've never had one you wouldn't understand just how bad it is.
About 5 years ago I went to the hospital from it and had a full stress test done and the doctor and nurse said I was basically a freak LOL, but I still can't get it out of my head.
Wondering if anyone else deals with this and how did you get over it?
