Talking to my friend ?

Question

Long story short I had a really bad panic attack and asked my friend to get my meds while I drove and now she keeps teasing me about ‘grab my pills!’. I’m absolutely humiliated and I hate having panic attacks in front of people and I need to let her know she can’t tease me about this  bc it’s hurting me but I don’t want to make it awkward... advice?

Answer

My boyfriend actually did something similar to this... I have awful anxiety especially with crowds and we have assemblies at my school and whenever I went to one I’d have a panic attack. Long story short he told everyone in my culinary group that I freak out around people and jokes about it. It hurts our feelings and I have no clue why people joke about this stuff! I say just confront your friend. Just be like “hey you making jokes about when I had a panic attack hurt my feelings. This is a very real thing for me. And the fact you joke about it really hurts me”. I feel like honesty is the best way to approach this.

Answer

Good luck talking to your friend though. I’m sending you hugs😥❤️
