Needing words of encouragement !

So I'm having a slight anxiety attack right now. Trying to control my breathing. I took my medicine. But I feel like it's taking forever to kick in. It's hard for me to breath :(

Hey how r u doing now??

Hello Jean I hope you are feeling a little better than you were

Panic attacks are such dreadful things & can be so frightening when they appear

One thing I try & remember if I am having one is to picture a panic attack like the top of a mountain & if you imagine climbing to the top from there where would you go & that would be to come back down , panic attacks are similar as they will reach their peak which feels dreadful but try & keep in mind once they have the only thing for them is to then come back down , hope yours has x
