Q: Sound like panic attacks ?

I am 15, and I remember when I was in elementary school, i guess it was kind of like insomnia..I couldn't go to sleep for hours. If I was still awake by the time my parents went to bed, I would freak out, not know what to do, and have difficulty breathing. My heart would race, and I would pace around my room hoping it would go away. It wouldn't. I never knew what was wrong, and my parents tried to help me go to sleep, but nothing worked. I wonder now if it was a panic attack or not...what do you think?
I don't know if this is related or not, but my whole life I have been nervous in front of people...if I am alone to see a teacher or anyone, I won't do it. If my friend comes, my fears go away. if I have to walk to the washroom on a plane for example, it feels as if everyone is watching me...and I hate it. I feel like I am being watched all the time, but I know deep down that I'm not. I also hate talking on the phone...don't know why, but I my heart races as I hear the ringing on the other end, and dreading when someone answers. Even if I call my best friend or my parents....it is so irratating.
So, yeah if you could help that would be great Very Happy

Sounds like an anxiety disorder, general or social or both. If you haven't already, you should talk with your parents about this. There is help out there for this. Usually with panic attacks you think you are having a heart attack or about to die. Again, there is help out there for these symptoms.
