... well, I've been trying to describe what happens to me sometimes for years. Been calling it a panic attack since I was like 8 years old. Holy shit. I think I have this.

When I was younger it sometimes looked like the whole room was gigantic (bigger than any building in existence) when I was laying in bed in the evening.

It made me feel kind of uneasy, but nowadays this happens very rarely to me.
