I'm from Panama and I feel like I'm losing my mind

348 Upvotes

Yesterdays earthquake didn't affect my surroundings thankfully. I live in a well built house in the city and there was little to no destruction here, including my house which is intact. Regardless, I still felt the earthquake as my room is on the second floor and it was horrible. At first I thought it'd pass and I'd just have to deal with a couple of trembles afterwards, and there's been a few, but I'm constantly on edge and feel like I'm going insane.

I wasn't able to sleep last night, maybe for a couple hours. Everytime I lay down or sit, I feel my entire body shaking and I don't know if it's be or if it's shaking again. My muscles are insanely tense, I'm exhausted and paranoid, and if I look around too fast in a panic to see if it's shaking again, I get insanely dizzy. I don't know what to do or how to make it stop. Please if anyone has any advice I could seriously use it right now cause I'm on the verge of tears.

Other A Table of How Often Earthquakes Happen Worldwide.

How Often Do Earthquakes Happen Worldwide?

Approximate global earthquake frequency by magnitude, based on historical averages:

Magnitude Per Day Per Week Per Month Per Year
1.0–1.9 ~35,600* ~249,000* ~1.08 million* ~13 million*
2.0–2.9 ~3,560 ~24,900 ~108,000 ~1,300,000
3.0–3.9 ~356 ~2,490 ~10,800 ~130,000
4.0–4.9 ~36 ~249 ~1,080 ~13,000
5.0–5.9 ~3.6 ~25 ~110 ~1,300
6.0–6.9 ~0.36 ~2.5 ~11 ~130
7.0–7.9 ~0.04 ~0.3 ~1.3 ~15
8.0–8.9 ~0.003 ~0.02 ~0.08 ~1
9.0–9.9 Extremely rare Extremely rare Extremely rare No reliable average
  • Magnitude 1–2: too small to feel.
  • Magnitude 3–4: Hundreds occur daily worldwide. If you are close enough to the epicentre and they are shallow enough you can feel them.
  • Magnitude 5: Roughly 3–4 per day, these are very noticable hunderds of km around the epicentre
  • Magnitude 6: Roughly one every 3 days, can already do a lot of damage if it happens in a city build on top of a fault.
  • Magnitude 7: Roughly 15 per year, these almost always injure people often kill 0 - 100 unless building standards are not followed and a city gets hit then they can kill thousands of people.
  • Magnitude 8: Approximately one per year. If in the ocean these can cause tsunamis that by far are the most deadly aspects of earthquakes.
  • Magnitude 9: Extremely rare; only a handful have occurred in recorded history.

    The magnitude 1–2 figures are rough extrapolations, and actual counts vary by year and detection capability.
