I have had increased panic attacks, so bad to the point that I had the paramedics come to check my vitals. New here so just looking for ideas from ppl who can relate.

Usually a change of scenery is the only way to get me calmed down. Depending on the situation, that could mean going to another room, for a walk, or even having someone drive me to my mom's house. I guess it's a good distraction and makes me feel like in control a bit.

Self love Coffeelover4!

Be selfish! Do what you need!

Perhaps actually name aloud what you're doing.

I say to my husband " I'm freaking out! So I am going to go for a big walk! "

Labeling it to better control it.

Have you tried getting super healthy to focus on that? (maybe you already are)
