it's not paranoia if they really are all out to get you.
You need to contact your counsellor or other Health Professional.
Sit down and stop worrying gordie. And if your blood sugar is too high do something about it. Are you on insulin injections, if so you could give yourself a very small shot to get it down. Otherwise drink plenty of water and try to be calm. Your neighbours will probably forget all about it, but if you feel that bad go and carefully apologise to them, but wait until your blood sugar is level before you do. Hope you feel better soon.
google the tablet, check the side effects, if panic attacks are not listed you did not have a panic attack you are just clumsy
Are you seeing a health professional to help you with your anxiety?

If not you really should.

I am seeing a counsellor is this really irrational that they are going to come and get me I mean all I said was come on it is difficult to see this as irrational because it feels real but I can rationalise this and think it is irrational
You thought the Police were coming for you last week, they didnt did they? And nor will this couple. Try not to read more in to stuff than there is, you will end up a nervous wreck.
It IS irrational. It's easy for me to say but stop fretting, you are getting yourself worked up unnecessarily.

Are you able to contact your counsellor by phone inbetween sessions or have they suggested a helpline to use when you find yourself in situations such as this?
Yes , it is irrational.
They will have most likely forgotten all about it by now.
Has it occurred to you that if they did come to your door (very unlikely), it might be to say that they were sorry that you were ill and hoped that they had not upset you ?

You are really going to have to get a hold of yourself, gordie.
Sorting out your sugar levels by following the advice of your Dr and specialist nurse would be a start.
Learning to tolerate some discomfort like a bit of nausea would also help.
Most 'symptoms' are not indicative of anything much and will fade over an hour or so.
If you know that a side effect of your medication is nausea, you just have to put up with it for a few days at least ...if it is persistent and very unpleasant, then ask your GP about changing your medication...but please, give it a good try first.
And please continue to attend your counsellor as your anxiety is a major problem.
I ran out of my house into this woman and she was trying to get throught the door with her baby was it your house, that she dithered about at?

You're probably related to them, and wanted to help you. (How would you know your not?)

I wouldn't worry about any repercussions they're probably scared for you doing any harm to yourself.

gordie, I know what a panic attack is like - it's a horrible feeling and you don't behave like you might do normally. Please don't keep fretting that everyone is out to get you - nor do you have to explain to people about your blood sugars. What is the reading today then? - I thought you were being careful with sugar and remembering to take your medication.
If you don`t mind me saying, I think you need to speak to a health professional about your paranoia/panic attacks and I don`t think that is anything to do with your diabetes. Just my opinion though - I`m not an expert.

it is sharing the same front door is that bad?
Why should it be bad? If several families live in the same building, they have to share your front door. It is good to get on with your neighbours though...
PS Gordie - how's your kitten?
Gordie...stop being so selective in what you read...no one said you were doing anything bad.
Try to pay as much attention to the posts giving you reasonable advice as you do to any tiny thing that you interpret as a possible criticism.
