TRIGGER

I woke up with a terrible headache, and I was in a panicky sweat and couldn't talk or move. I was trying to call my husband to come help me wake up so that I could move, but all that came out were little grunts and murmurs. It felt like hours. I was vaguely aware that my family were all leaving for school/work, and I was trapped in my bed about to die. I really felt like I was dying or that someone was going to kill me.

I must have fallen asleep again, because I woke up two hours later, still with my headache.

I have had panic attacks upon waking before, but never one like this. I am still shaken.

I wonder if it was the withdrawal from Lamictal...
