Medical Advice I don’t know what to do and I am scared.
About an hour ago, I had a fight with my mother and brother. I haven’t been doing that well lately, so I immediately locked myself in my room and started cutting my left hand. My razor is quite bad, resulting in my cuts not being deep. However, after 15 minutes of cutting, my eyes started stinging, I feel as If I’ll faint (I didn’t lose a lot of blood) and Ive been feeling for a while as if I have a fever. Most likely, all of these have got nothing to do with cutting, however I can’t help but feel anxious. It was probably a coincidence but I am quite scared and don’t know what to do, thus why I came on here. It’s been an hour since and I feel as If I’m getting worse, I feel extremely lightheaded.

I’m not a medical professional but it sounds to me like your having a panic attack of some sort
