What Causes Panic Attack?

Im jessica. Im bout to be 17 im 5 7 and 140 pounds.. i randomly will pass out or see dots and feel like everythings moving its not when i stand up either. It happens just at random moments like i was washing the dishes and went to walk to another room and totally lost concousness woke up with everyone around me on the living room floor. Other times ill just walk into a room and see dots and have to sit down. Other times ill just sit down and cant breath and have a panic attack. At night i lay in bed close my eyes and it feels like the worlds spinning and im spinning. I just want it to stop my doctor thinks im making it up cause i dont have a medical history.. she doesnt realize ive never been to a doctor till now besides urgent care for the flu 3 years ago...

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. We call these symptoms as apprehensive and obsessive thinking. You talk to any one and you shall find the dots and movements in front of their eyes. Instead of ignoring them you took them seriously and started pondering. Health anxiety overwhelmed and everything felt as if you have some health problem. Even an experienced and knowledgeable person like your doctor could not convince you. That is the problem with health anxiety and apprehension.

Consider that your doctor is right and ignore the symptoms. Within a week you shall be alright.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
