Until the last year or so I've never really had to many problems with anxiety & depression. I'm 24 & a recovering addict so with the way substances alter the brain I always knew I would have some sort of issues when it came to my mental health. Since becoming sober this past time I have become much more another social and feel uncomfortable when having a conversation with most people. About 1 month ago I was laying in bed and suddenly I sat up and felt intense stress, my heart was racing, I was sweating, breathing hatd and felt very worried. After about 10th minutes it went away and I felt ok again. Then today I went over to a friends house for a party. There were a good amount of people there for the size of my town and I knew most of them. I felt ok when I got there but as I was walking in I suddenly felt shakey and really nervious. I had a few people talk to me and I started sweating profusely, shaking quite a bit and I felt like I was goin to pass out. I lasted for all of 90 seconds with these symptoms before I made an excuse that I had to go and would be back. I have never felt so embaressed in my entire life. Anyone with experience or knowlage, please help me understand what exactly I'm experiencing and what could be causing these attacks. Thanks

You don't have to be embarrassed. Anxiety attacks are common and a lot of people will understand.
What helped me was talking to other people and finding out to my surprise that they also suffered from them.
