School Swim Carnival Today.....

Ma

Sooooo, on the first race of the day for Freestyle, I was around 25m down the 50m lane and started not being able to breath. My chest was tight, I was wheezing (that lasted for almost 20mins btw), I felt numb. I’ve had troubles with anxiety so could this be an anxiety attack or panic attack? Also the teachers (around 5 of them) came up to me and said “Do you have Asthma?” I told them no so they just said “Catch your breath.”

When you need to catch your breath it doesn’t feel like you’re going to pass out, faint or die. No harsh feelings against the school, but seriously. Also I’m normally a good swimmer I took lessons for 7 years (and I can do 50m in Freestyle pretty easily normally). Oh, and the majority of students and teachers were watching the race so yay the whole school knows who I goddamn am. I’ve only been at the school for a week and a half sooooooooooo. But I did get to go home early, but I was looking forward to racing.
