You hit the nail on the head....

I have throat tension like crazy...like someone is choking me, at times it's so bad I can hardly speak, I'm glad to know I'm not crazy and other people are experiencing the same thing...internal shakes and detatched from my environment/light headedness, weakness, numbing in the hands/fingers...and exhaustion from over thinking...

Id2wc...I had the same feeling in the throat after I was beaten by my parents (abused) I never really thought about it but now you mentioned it it is the same sensation...


When I am doing physical work I feel better, but after I'm done and relaxing it creeps back up on me...I have had the throat thing for about 3 years and it has gotten worse over the last 5 months because as my wife left me and took my 2 children, she said she loved me but she wasn't in love with me...that would give anyone anxiety...although I see my children 4 times a week and my wife and I live around the corner and we still get along great and we never fought just never really communicated...I'm rambling....

Does anyone ever experience detachment from their environment????

RE Wow
I'm eighteen years old and I've found it very hard to connect with my peers lately because of the feeling of detachment I've been feeling for the past year. It started when I got my first panic attack about a year ago, and after that I thought I was going crazy. I also began to feel like I was watching a movie of my own life, but I wasn't really participating - I even used that exact example when trying to explain it to my mom. I've experienced the choking thing, the trembling, numbness, heart pain, dizziness... I'm glad I'm not the only one whose felt like this.
