English term or phrase: It would attack me from nowhere
Testo teatrale americano (per la messa in scena e non per la pubblicazione). Dialogo tra due persone. Una delle due racconta le conseguenze di un incidente in macchina.

A: At first I stopped driving. After the accident, I was afraid to get behind the wheel. Then I started getting those pains in my chest every time I left the house. It would attack me from nowhere. I’d be in a shop, trying some clothes on, and suddenly I couldn’t breathe.

La mia proposta:

A: All’inizio ho smesso di guidare. Dopo l’incidente, ho avuto paura a mettermi al volante. Poi ho cominciato ad avere queste fitte al petto ogni volta che uscivo di casa. Mi prendevano dal nulla.

Cerco soluzioni migliori. Grazie!
