I have a friend that has panic disorder...when she heard this she got chills. This is almost exactly what is going through her mind when she's suffering from a panic attack. They're very scary and these words describe what she's thinking about how she's feeling...
Fear is how I fall: the reason she always falls into these panic attacks is fear of everything around her
Confusing what is real: when you're in them, everything around you doesn't seem real and it's hard to figure what is and isn't
There's something inside of me that pulls beneath the surface: it's something inside of her and it's all she knows is that it's a medical problem caused by no apparent reason
Consuming, confusing: it totally consumes her body and her mind and it's so confusing
This lack of self-control is neverending: she has no self-control
I can't seem to find myself again: she doesn't feel that she'll ever get out of it and this feeling acts as if it will never go away
Too much pressure to take: it's an attack of extreme anxiety
I've felt this way before: she's constantly suffering from these attacks
Discomfort....: her physical and mental being are extrememly full of discomfort and no matter how hard she tries she can't get comfortable
Distracting....: she can't think
Against my will I stand beside my own reflextion: it's so haunting how she can't control herself and how surreal the whole seen is
If this makes sense or not to anyone...I know that if you just listen to these words, what is being described is everything that's spinning around in her mind in a matter of moments and this spinning will not stop. Fear consumes her body and she absolutely cannot get out of any of that fear...It's a horrible thing to go through, but this song and many, MANY other Linkin Park lyrics give her a sense of comfort...knowing that perhaps there's someone else who knows how's she's feeling or how she's felt...
Almost exactly what I get from the song. Except "Against my will I stand beside my own reflection" to me is the feeling of being detached from my own body almost as if I'm watching myself.

Wow nice explanation. This is exactly what I feel when I hear this song because I've also had anxiety problems and still recovering from it. You explain each part as if you had experienced them!!!

I really like this comment!!! I have ADHD and Anxiety and I feel something like this! I agree Linkin Park sort of reminds us that we are not alone. Thanks for the comment!
