I just had the most major panic attack I've ever had in a long time maybe 5 hours ago and I've been trying to sleep ever since, idek why I had the attack . 3am right now and I have to get up in 4 hours to go to work. The attack was so bad I honestly thought I was having a seizure and I couldn't breathe or move, I felt so scared and I couldn't get out of it. I just wish my girlfriend doesn't have to see me like this. I'm scared that I'm going to be too much for her to handle and she's going to leave.

Can't Sleep, Major Panic Attack, Overthinking Everything
After a panic attack, try focusing on your breath—slow, deep breaths can help calm your body. Talking to your loved ones about your experience can also be relieving; They might offer support you didn't expect. For sleep, a short meditation or relaxing music might help. Consider seeing a therapist for ongoing support. Remember, it's okay to ask for help, and you’re not alone in this.
Chef,
I understand you not wanting your girlfriend to see you during a panic attack but if she loves you she will always be there for you regardless, unconditionally. I think your worry is just the anxiety. If she is next to you your worry is about something that has not happened. If things between you guys do not work out due to something beyond your control then would you want to be with someone like that anyway?
