i tried ecstacy for tha first time a week ago. i took half a pill was feeling fine then it felt like i was gona have a panic attack. about 30 seconds later i felt soooo happy and tha panic attack feeling went away. i had a clean high for hours. but is it normal to feel like your having a panic attack b4 tha pill kicks in full strength?

Pip asked:


I’ve been having what I thought were panic attacks lately ( I have not had confirmation from a doctor but from what I have read they have either been panic or anxiety attacks). Anyway, I found this in an answer to a heart attack question:

“A heart attack usually provokes shooting pain on the chest that extends to the LEFT arm and also shortness of breath, palpitations, dizziness, loss of consciousness and many more obvious symptoms”

My question is do you get sharp shooting pains in your chest, near heart area, for panic attacks? Or is that strictly a heart attack symptom? I feel that I am too young to have a heart attack, but I am pretty overbooked, thus overly stressed. I haven’t had an shooting pains in my left arm though, and I know that is a trademark for Heart Attacks. So does anyone know whats going on with me? Here are the symptoms I have had for reference:

-Chest Pain
-Shaking (Not always)
-Headache
-Dizziness/Nausea
-Trouble Breathing

Thank you for your help!

Then i usually throw up and can’t get back to sleep.

I’m 16.

How can i get control over this without drugs.
