I understand, I've had anxiety for 30, so I know that each and every time is just

like the first and can appear to be worse. Anything you know that might have

caused this to be so severe?

Right now you need to start breathing more deeply and slowly which will help calm your mind and body.

If you are able to sit down...find a comfortable chair with a pillow behind your back..Both feet planted on the ground, your hands on your lap

Sit straight, lower the lights and start breathing slowly

Breathe Boomer, as we walk down this long hall you see a white door

at the end of the hall. We walk slowly as we deep breathe, one step in front of the other. Planting each step firmly on the ground beneath us

As we get nearer the door, you mind wonders for a moment what will be on the other side when you open that door. Breathe Boomer...

If you feel too agitated to sit still then walk/pace use up the unnecessary adrenaline going through your body right now. Know that you are Safe... this panic will not hurt you. It is short lives if you cooperate and allow it to run it's course.

Continue deep breathing.... You can use YouTube to continue relaxing.

Type in Audio Meditation and Deep Breathing for Panic Attack. The videos

are amazing and will help you the rest of the way.

wishing you peace and calm.... Take care.

Breathe, take a walk, do something that makes you happy whether it's watching TV or a movie, playing a video game, etc. It is so important to remove yourself from your current environment and find your happy place. Be patience as it WILL pass.
