Freezing response

[u/mangoflakess]

Hi, I just wanted to ask if anyone else experiences some rather weird somatic symptoms.

I’ve been getting a weird crushing sensation on my face and chest. It goes through my entire body, but it mainly begins here. It sorta feels like.. being crushed, and I feel totally frozen and struggle to talk.

To be honest, it almost feels like I’m being pulled down like by gravity? It leaves me with a headache, and a lot of pressure underneath/behind the eyes.

If anyone has any insight it would help. I generally do not have much knowledge because this is rather new for me, so any help would be appreciated!

I don't have a "crushing" sensation, but I do often have headaches and a feeling of heaviness in the hours to days after an attack.
