After I had my panic attack, I thought I was dead. For a solid 15 minutes it was full-blown Cotard's. I couldn't even really see. It was terrifyingly calm, looking back on it.

    Normal. Worrying, feeling like you're in fight or flight mode, crying, and the physical changes while panicking takes a lot of energy from the body and psyche.

    I think I've had a similar experience. Definitely a weird feeling.

    I dunno about dead, but I have certainly felt like I was dying while having a panic attack before.

      It was definitely odd. My hands felt all bony and I felt really cold. I honestly don't know what was up, but I don't ever want it again.

        I remember times when I felt like my heart was gonna explode.
