Q: Is An Anxiety Attack a Normal Thing When Broken Hearted?

Ok not to bore anyone with this but here it goes: my boyfriend and I broke up on a saturday and by monday he met this girl who I never knew about until that day when I had an anxiety attack and I cut myself really bad I guess and I blacked out (told to me by doctor) and she said it was normal for that to happen but never explained if it was from all the stress and depression I had built up because I still loved this guy to death but he didnt love me anymore. I went the next day and showed him what I had did and he asked what I did it for and I told him I didnt know is that why? Is it because I had the attack? I am looking for advise or if its happened to anyone before? Please help me so I know what I am dealing with because I have no clue.

It sounds like you were depressed and didn't know how to deal with it. My little sister cut herself when she was going through some rough times and it didn't help at all.Just try to keep yourself busy and your mind off of him.If you don't have a job,get one.If your not old enough,do some volunteer work.Besides,its a plus if you do volunteer work if you decide to go to college later! Be careful girl,and don't cut yourself anymore!

My sister did it b/c:

a) she was depressed
b) she was not happy with her appearance
c) not happy with her love life
d) didn't get enough attention
e)stress from school/people at school

there are several reasons why people do things but only you can stop it.You should go to councelling or talk to someone who you are close to so they may be able to help you.
