I'm feeling a panic attack coming on

I'm getting jittery and scared so I know a panic attack is coming. I'm trying to fight it, but I'm failing.🤢

Never fight it RKJ....Let it pass through you and accept it as not harmful.

Since you wrote 2 posts after this, how are you feeling now?

Jittery

[Agora1 in reply to Hidden]

Are you doing some slow breathing? It can lower that jitteriness

from the adrenaline. Breathe xx

I'm just trying to ignore it until it goes away

[Agora1 in reply to Hidden]

[Hidden in reply to Agora1]

Remember Steve we are all here because we have one problem or many.

We are all damaged goods, we have many friends here who understand this and care for each other.

Take care, best wishes, Tim.

I appreciate your kind words, but I do not believe in god.

You’ve got this. You have staying power. You will outlast the attack. Just keep breathing.

The anxiety and phobia workbook has a chapter ( 4?)that explains exactly what is happening in your body when you feel this way. I found it very reassuring to know that anxiety and panic are not Harmful, and you can use the self-talk suggested In the book to help you ride the wave. Remember, this too shall pass.

It is harmful when they are accompanied by not being able to breathe or when I laid down my bike doing 45mph because I froze.
