Simple question simple answers.

I have seen people thinking it is hilarious that freddie was reduced to having a panic attack...now in order to find out if these people are being serious that they find such a condition funny, or if they are just saying it because they hate freddie...i thought i would make this poll.

Answer honestly please.

Do you think it is funny for people, in general, to suffer panic attacks?

[Adamw92]

No my friend suffers from them, they can be quite scary

[Brad.]

No, not funny. freddie however reduced himself to a pathetic fool tonight

[Moses1]

That is such a silly question, it is like asking if we like eating shite. Of course panic attacks are horrible. I have suffered from them. Anyone who claims to find them funny has a screw loose.

[Visage]

Honestly ?


All depends if the person is really having one, or just faking it to manipulate whatever it is they are wanting to get the sympathy vote from

My partner does also. Usually mild ones, but every now and again a really bad one where he cant even stand to have me anywhere near him, he hides in the corner of the room convinced he is dying...its horrible.

Well if you think that was a panic attack then quite frankly you need help more than people who find them funny.

As I've said in a few threads that was not a panic attack. He was very upset/annoyed/frustrated. He would have been much worse if it was a genuine panic attack. He played on it for sympathy because he knew he was likely to be up.

[Half-Past-Sree]

Yeah, its ****ing hilarious

You are in a position to judge if a panic attack if real or fake are you?

[BBmassive]

Panic attacks are terrible ,I had one a few years ago .but Freddie didnt have one IMO

[ManicWolf]

I agree, it's disgraceful the way people are treating what heppened with Freddie tonight.

As someone who has suffered from them from years I have only sympathy for Freddie (the same as I would if it had been any other HM). Panic attacks are horrible, scary, and it's near impossible to stop one once it starts.

Freddie thinks he has the public on his side, why would he need to..

Exactly, and this is from a sufferer.

im hoping that was sarcastic..

[decisivemoment]

Panic attacks are bloody frightening and not something which should be mocked, I think there are some people on here who are just sceptical, the guy did seem genuinely distressed.

[Nemo123]

If you mean Freddie, that wasn't a panic attack, was it? More a sulk. Panic attacks are much worse than that. You hyperventilate and get cold sweats and panic and don't know what to do. You literally feel yourself drown in them.

Someone prone to such attacks would be screened out of the show in the assessment stage. You'd hope so anyway.

You may have said it in another thread, but not everybody agrees with you.

Oh gosh, I'd hate to have them, one time i actually thought i was having one but I wasn't...i overreact to things as small as a simple headache

[MissKittyFantastico]

I'm frankly amazed and a bit ashamed at some of the reactions on here tbh.

Who the **** is anyone to judge what is and what isn't a panic attack?

They are totally individual to the person that is having them, they affect sufferers in different ways and can be controlled in some cases, not in others, can range in severity and be brought on by the mildest of things at times.

Having suffered with varying levels of anxiety and panic attacks for years, you can tell when you know what one feels and looks like whether someone is faking or not and Freddie was not faking. He had a completely physical reaction to the way Bea was attacking him, he could barely speak, his breathing was all over the place and he was becoming more and more agitated to the point where he asked her to leave him alone.

I'm not going to reply to any more of these posts because it's actually making me quite upset to see how unfeeling and cold hearted some people can be, and to anyone who thinks that panic and anxiety is a big joke, I hope for your sake you never experience it.

[rhijack]

I thought his distress seemed very real = if he felt anxious and panicked and upset to the point where he couldn't control his body's reaction then for him the panic attack was real. Panic attacks are horrid things and can range from someone in an almost catatonic state who is literally panicking inside their mind to all out physical one where its obvious to all that the individual is panicking.

Believe me it's amazing what people find funny,there are truly some unhinged individuals around
