I’ve come to realize for me when i feel a panic attack coming that i can’t stop, the best option for me in the moment is deep breathing and distractions. Counting back from 100 is a very helpful method for me.
I don’t know if it would work because it’s totally not the same thing but whenever I feel like I’m going to throw up I will hum and pretend like I’m happy and having a fun time and it makes it go away. 🤷♀️
I never like to let anyone witness an attack if I can help it. They happen in the shower most times. I have mt daughter wait outside the door and talk to me to distract me. It helps
@@mudbuffWhat do you mean? Psychiatrists are human too, with a brain, who can experience traumatic events in their life. They’re not exempted from mental illness’s. Although, they have more coping and preventive abilities than a normal person.
I’m a medical student, once I was seeing my patient and my attending doctor came and started yelling at me unfairly ( it doesn’t really matter tho if it was fair or not) and I was trying to control my emotions but then it turned into a panic attack, I felt I can’t breathe and Was shaking and crying uncontrollably and couldn’t talk to be able to explain that I’m having a panic attack, but she kept screaming so I just left the room and went to the ER and got treated, but my attend forced me to take the whole course again because she thought it was disrespectful that I left the room and told me even if I was dying I should have stayed, mind you she was a doctor and yet couldn’t understand what it’s like to panic
If I was your patient, your attending would have gotten an earful from me. I would rather my doctor excuse themself and take care of their needs (which are important like mine). I once showed up for an appointment and my doctor asked me what my last visit was about. He had only written one sentence in my chart…and he then told me right there that he was struggling with depression and asked me if therapy helped (I’m open about my mental health). Some people would say that’s unprofessional, but I don’t care. I can’t get quality care if my doctor isn’t okay.
Those are the doctors that doesn’t give a crap for their patients. If they don’t have sympathy to another fellow doctor then what can you expect with them and their patients?
I'm so sorry 😢 as a former healthcare worker that is struggling with her health and been on these situations myself as is usually the staff not the patients...yes, it is very tough.
Can someone explain to me what a panic attack is? And what kinda things trigger them? Like for people to get Soo scared to a point they can't even talk what kinda horrible thing they experienced to get a panic attack so severe. I just want to get educated on this so I can help someone Thank you ❤️
@@Hari-sn8re so basically everyone has an anxiety threshold, some people shorter than others regular anxiety really pales in comparison to a panic attack panic attack happens when your anxiety levels go way beyond the border of regular anxiety, now it isn’t that having anxiety will eventually get you a panic attack but when your anxiety just spikes to a level your body feels as if it’s in danger and your brain just decides to go haywire as for how it feels, your vision can get blurry or in my case i felt a black border just form around my side of vision, you can’t think of the past or future because your mind is on that specific thing and the breathing, it’s like trying to breath when someone is sitting on your chest and you feel like your suffocating everything around you seems unreal, artificial almost and it’s as if your brain completely shifted realities and point of view of the world while having a panic attack no matter what caused the anxiety whether it was small or not, a panic attack will genuinely make you feel as if you saw the whole world explode and you’re trying to cope mentally it makes you physically want to cry and panic and cry for help, but that only makes it worse so you have to try to cope and hold back the panic attack which is insanely hard to do and how people feel a panic attack coming, if you ever knew that feeling when you’re about to throw up or going to soon, then imagine that feeling but in your gut where the anxiety is and your brain, then the panic attack happens sounds pretty crazy and weird but i assure you these thing are very real and people who’ve had one for the first time actually think they’re genuinely dying of a heart attack and go to the emergency room panic attacks
🕊️❤ ❤🔥🕊️ Jesus is a healer. You no longer have to manage or cope. Jesus can set you free from the negative voices in your head.

I kept hearing voices too and thought I shouldn’t be here. The unclean spirit/demon made me starve myself, lock myself in a dark room 16 hours a day, and diarrhea 10x a day in fear. (no exaggeration) I really needed help. I felt helpless. I prayed to Jesus and I kept reading the Holy Bible and Jesus led me to a non denominational pastor and he commanded the unclean spirits to leave me. ❤NOW I AM FREE. No more torture in my mind. Jesus saved me and healed my mind, heart, body ,soul and spirit. Jesus is alive. You can be set free/delivered from demons too, if you ask Jesus to set you free from whatever you are going through.

I was always shamed for being “so sensitive”. My thoughts then and now, are it’s such a shame you’re not sensitive, especially towards others. I e learned different ways to cope with social anxiety and feeling attacked. I remove myself from the environment. It’s so strange to me that other peoples feelings were always more important than mine and made to feel guilty and abnormal when my feelings are hurt.
I agree! Being sensitive is a gift. Although we feel everything so much more and often have anxiety and panic disorders, feeling emotions at such a deep visceral level is a wonderful thing to experience as well as being thoughtful and empathetic towards everyone
@@6ded502 This is so true! I’m a 47 year old who cried when I saw Mitch McConnell blank out the other day. At the end of the day and no matter what side of the fence you’re on, we’re all humans and I felt so terrible for him in that moment.
I hate panick attacks it really feels like you are dying and there is nothing that can help then I feel so embarrassed and ashamed for not having control of my own body/emotions
Never feel shame for being a human being with flaws. It’s all part of the journey. I hope you’re taking steps to understand and manage your symptoms. ❤
@@Maddie9185 been in therapy for awhile which helps a lot, I've also been doing better the past couple months, I also know it's unorthodox but CBG from Cannabis has anti-anxiety properties and it's been helping
@@sirensmelody5527herapy won’t do anything, what you need is Jesus. When I used to have strong demonic anxiety attacks that came against me like a Giant I immediately put my focus on Jesus and it stopped immediately. Basically visualising Jesus’s face and Him standing right before me.
@livetothelordjesus.5489 how do you know that I'm not already Christian? Therapy has helped tremendously not only with my anxiety but also with my eating disorder. God gave us the ability to lean on each other and also he gave my therapist the drive to want to help people. To say that therapy won't help is asinine, when god most likely sent me in the direction to get therapy to ask for help. No church has ever helped me the way therapy has, the gossiping controlling clicks that form inside of organized religion drowns out any real intent from God with their own selfish needs and wants.
Ironic how she's touching her hands like that but not trained to recognize the healing parasympathetic effects of accupressure in the hands . Probably just $$$ trained to give out psychiatric drugs with side effects. Karma gonna hit if you drug out your patients too for $
Thank you for putting this online. I always feel like I’m overreacting and start talking myself down and I know that other people experience panic attacks too. People talk about them but you never really see them, so this feels really reassuring to me some how. That I’m not exaggerating and I’m not faking it. So thank you for being so brave. This meant a lot to me. ❤️
Results have shown that one or two doses of psilocybin mushrooms given in a therapeutic setting, can make long-lasting changes in people suffering from depressive disorders.
I can't speak for everyone magic shrooms rejuvenated me, No doubt about that. It lifted an existential angst that I have been carrying for years. It never came back.
When taken under supported conditions, psilocybin mushrooms can cause self-described spiritual experiences that generally result in positive changes in the person's attitude, mood and hehavior
Panic attacks are horrible. You think you’re dying, you want to flee, your heart is pounding and you begging to cry uncontrollably. It’s taken me years to learn to deal with them. Thank you for posting this to help others become aware of what they are like and how to deal with them.
never had a panic attack but I sort of know what it’s like, gotten them in dreams since I was 4 years old thankfully they end quick but it feels dreadful doesn’t it?
Wow you are such a real person. I would do anything to be treated by a psychiatrist like you. You’re openness & honestly is what I’m looking for. I have gone to several therapists & a couple psychiatrists. None of them have helped me as much as you & I only started following about a week ago. Having ADHD yourself & being a Dr you can totally relate to how difficult life can be with this condition. Thank you so much for sharing this. It shows how caring & kind you are to others. I believe you are helping others with this post. Whoever told you that is your purpose was spot on. Thank you very much I am so appreciative of your help. Do you think panic attacks are more prevalent with ADHD?
As an individual studying psychology and has had panic and anxiety attacks, this is very helpful and reassuring I can get things done and be the psychologists or psychiatrists and help others...This is very new for me and very uncomfortable but I am power and so are you all!! ❤
You are not alone with this. Its taken me 17 years to understand, acknowledge and know how to talk myself out of a panic attack. Its still very hard but anyone can do it. You are not alone. I say that again because a lot of people think they are the only ones, you're not. And that is ok. You are ok. Dealing with this pressure inside, outside and all around you is hard but when you learn to understand what your mind is putting you through you can win in that moment. Thank you for being vulnerable with us and showing others its ok to be human. One Love 🤘🏼💚
@@allahfearing5290core fears, fear of fear, fear of thoughts, fear of feelings, practice triggering yourself and whatever happens you unconditionally accept yourself wether you are ugly, small, fat, obese, skinny, personally triggered, just accept it all.
Thank you for sharing this video, this is very helpful to demonstrate panic attack with a real life scenario. You as a psycatrist doesn't mean you're different from others, you're a human being just like anyone you have your problems your downsides
I have been experiencing those panic attacks daily ever since I lost my job it is awful. Thankfully I have a wonderful daughter that understands me. What helps me is going for a walk and breath outside….
I really appreciate you. You are humble, and real, and kind. Thank you for sharing your experience. And you are a gorgeous lady with great hair to boot!
Ive had this for the first time in my life couple years ago.. Ended up in a hospital once because I convinced myself im about to die. And then one day I tried to sit with this horrendous feeling and suddenly I realised - its my brain trying to trick me that im gonna die thats it,its just an imagination,its not real,i will never die because of this. And then panic attack left my body and never returned. Its amazing how human brain works..
Ugh, panic attacks are the WORST I'm glad you were able to get away and regroup. ❤️My first panic attack hit me at a red light, driving. I literally felt like jumping out of my car and running. It Was horrible. Turns out I had very , very low thyroid. That is what was triggering most my anxiety and panic. Thank you for posting, and being so brave. You are amazing!
Anyone who has or has had an anxiety attack can truly empathize with that moment for you. One of the things that helps me, if it’s available is cold. I usually have a water bottle with ice in it. Pull a couple of cubes and rub on the top of my head or back of my neck. It brings me back down pretty quick. I’ve helped others on a plane using this technique. It sucks that you suffer with this, but on the other side I bet it makes you a much better and more understanding Doc. ❤❤❤
Panic attacks really stink. This morning I’m having a really good one. Watching you helped me, strange feeling of loneliness through my struggles. Listening to you I don’t feel so alone
I am so sorry, I definitely know how it feels. If you experience hyperventilating or shallows breaths I recommend to read something out loud. Like an article on your phone, or something that's near you. If reading out loud doesn't work you could also sing. It really helps me, it's also a technique used by paramedics sometimes when someone is panicking.
Have gone through this so can absolutely relate😢 Deep breathing and Chanting or listening to divine mantras have been of immense help. Anxiety and Panic attacks can hit anyone anytime anywhere so let us be mindful and gentle towards fellow human beings❤
As someone who has come from hour long panic attacks daily to very rarely having panic attacks my advice is to actually stay in the place that caused the panic because your brain thinks there’s a “threat” and if you leave you’re actually reinforcing that. Also take slow deep breaths, try to stay still, and tell yourself “I am okay, it’s just a panic attack and nothing more, this feeling is temporary.”
If the threat is actually there though you need to leave. This can be very unsafe for women who have been stalked, all we have is our gut whether its influenced by an equally dangerous world or not
Im so sorry u have to even feel this i had horrible anxiety and have ADHD so i kno how ur feeling but i can say the anxiety is nothing like it use to be so much better now.
I’m so sorry this happened to you. I had one of the worst panic attacks I’ve had in a while today. It was short but awful. Thanks for sharing these tips.
Thank you for sharing. It's so hard to explain having a panic attack sometimes. I just started having them. Specifically when in a car. It's the absolute worst feeling ever. Slowly finding ways to cope and learn to overcome.
I’m so sorry you had such an unpleasant experience. Being in the medical profession treating patients with anxiety disorders while suffering from a mental health condition ourselves, although empowering and allowing us to be more empathetic, can also be tremendously challenging, and it surely doesn’t help that senior colleagues, who should be so much more understanding, are a potential source of that distress. I can’t imagine what it must be like, especially since you are a psychiatrist yourself. You don’t deserve to go through this. You are so brave and strong. Much stronger than you know. And you are definitely not alone. Thank you so much for sharing this difficult and vulnerable moment with us, and reminding us that we aren’t alone either. Sending you love Dr. 🫶🏻
I just get scared to be alone….I would search for my mother when I get the attacks that’s why I feel so scared to go out of my home thinking she won’t be there with me….. but now I’m over it finally living independently….you’re a very brave person…..
Why don't you do accupressure points. See what she's doing to her hands? There are accupressure points there that help activate your parasympathetic system and get calm. Are you a doc too? Dont they teach you that in your residency? Or do they teach you to just prescribe drugs to yourself or patients that have scary side effects that can put you into a toxic cycle. And that cycle will reverberate to all parts of your life and loved ones. You want to perpetuate that cycle with you and your patients? Stop the cycle now. Be brave!
I began having panic attacks when I was in my early teens and have been dealing with them for a very long time. There would be times when I wouldn't experience anything for months or for years, and then, out of the blue, they would return. Sometimes, to the point, where I was experiencing absolute panic at whether or not I could even teach my next yoga class, and this is when I would either pull my car over to the side and stop if I was driving, close my eyes, and focus entirely on one of my breathing techniques while visualizing St. Germaine of the Violet Flame or an Angel. Thank you so much for sharing 💕
Accidentally.... You legit were going into a panic attack while consciously recording and then all you did was put your phone down, while knowing it was recording... Its just so insulting seeing people exploit mental illness for online attention.
I truly didn’t know it was recording and I struggled with whether or not to post this footage because it felt very invasive and personal. I decided to do so in case it could help someone. That moment was painfully and truly authentic and I’m sorry if you felt insulted by that.
The only thing that gets me through it is that I know it will pass. Like a wave washing over my head. I’m so sad we have to go through this. But I have learned to trust me anxiety. I write down all the times I have felt panicked or had an attack and it’s usually because of other peoples behavior not mine. It’s them not us 😭 I’m glad you got out of there
Bless you, it's not easy for those of us with panic attacks and there's all different kinds of ways we can panic, yet to many other people they don't understand and to them they either look at you weird or think you're being overreacting, or some are nice but don't know what to do. It can be scary for us or even embarrassing and during our panic attacks it's difficult to explain to others what's going on . I have various types of panic attacks, from this type here, to head jitters/ stuttering and my face can look funny, and it can look like I'm having a fit, to literally freezing on the spot and not being able to move or talk. Stay strong everyone out there who suffers and take care. ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing your journey. I had a terrible experience in my PhD program due to some abusive practices and lack of support. To this day I cannot walk onto the campus without having a physical reaction.
My panic attacks get so bad at times my limbs start stiffening… one of the most frightening things I ever experienced, especially when it first happened to me. I tght I was dying Frfr, and that my body was shutting down. Good to know I’m not alone. Happened to me at work recently, which made me panic even more. I think this happens to me when too many stressful things are happening at once.

Thank you for sharing this. I remember my first panic attack I was taken to the hospital. It was really bad that I could barely talk and breath. I thought I was going to die 😢
Poor Woman. I know exactly what she is going through. Guys, please let's always be kind to one another. Some of us really struggle. Sending her tons of love, light, healing and kind thoughts
Hugs really help with anxiety attacks , I used to have anxiety attacks a few times a year , since I changed jobs , I haven't been as stressed out , I only had 1 anxiety attack ,this year, because my Harm ocd was triggered and my intursive thoughts, kept wanting me to hurt someone, and for hours I cried trying to go to sleep , but it was so hard, and my nose became stopped up
The worst case scenario is when the panic attack occurs in the middle of a traffic jam, and you are caged in the car. I've experienced it on multiple occasions, and I, just like this lady, too tend to rub my ear nervously. What helped me overcome panic attacks are regular exercises. It really helps. I'm trying to push as much as I can it has a positive effect on my whole body which results in a better psycho condition.
I know that feeling well. I was driving on the motorway and had to move in to the fast lane to let other drivers merge on, immediately I felt this surge of energy come over me and began to shake. I got over to the hard shoulder eventually and stopped. I was shaking uncontrollably and began to cry. It was a truly awful experience. Know you triggers and breathe.
Some people have “high functioning” anxiety attacks. Anxiety attacks don’t always look the same and sometimes someone could be having one but u can’t even tell.
My first panic attacks I could barely say anything. Now when I feel it's coming I immediately start square breathing. It's difficult and there's no guarantee to surpass it, but theres no other way but to look for something that can help you personally. Apart of that talking to someone sometime may help, cause it helps not fall down to the full mode PA.
Well I have anxiety attacks they’re bad But they aren’t debilitating for me Yet. I will end up crying and hyperventilating and sometimes I can’t stop it but I can talk.
I’m so sorry you went through this! I’m looking, because I’m having problems now. Thank you for sharing this. My feelings came back seeing you, and I’m safe now. I hope you’re ok❣️🙏
I've had anxiety when I was a kid due to ignorance that people are not how I imagined them. It carried with me until I eventually realized there wasn't anything to be afraid of. I've also had a panic attack at work and just went home without telling anyone. I couldn't function. It was brought on by uncontrollable circumstances and I couldn't let the burden or constraints go because I was responsible for the outcome, which was partially life or death. So, while I don't have anxiety or panic attacks due to a physical problem, brain condition, or complex mental condition, I can sympathize a little bit with people who do.
@@amenhotep7704Is this is true anxiety or anxiety disorder or panic starts from bad habits like watching porn,masturbation,alcohol or any type of addiction?
You are a trooper. One thing that helps me during panic attacks and anxiety attacks is repeating in my mind to myself while I try to control my breathing. (Remember, this is chemical. I am not broken. This is not me. This is a chemical reaction to the world around me. Breathe Breathe Breathe it will pass it will pass its passing its passing I am safe safe safe safe) A pillow or a stuffed animal helps. Also, I don't like being touched or held during these events.
I like this video because not a lot of people can understand or know what your talking about when you say you have had a panic attack. I have had them sense I was young and people look at me weird sometimes when I say I have them and sometimes it’s really hard to explain it. My older sister had to help me learn how to breathe different ways. Your are very brave!!!

i have panic anxiety, and the worst thing ab it is having an attack while you aren’t able to get away from the trigger. i’m so glad you were able to get into your car! you did a great job demonstrating the effects of an attack.
The way I recovered from panic disorder, I changed my mindset/how I think. Before this, I was a person who was always stressed, a perfectionist, a deep thinker and liked to overthink. I used to follow a very tight schedule, because I tried to control all aspects of my life. All things in my life value in a complicated and complex angle. Eventually I languished with panic disorder and I became more stressed and sad. So I changed my thinking pattern and the way I judge, I became more open, positive, not serious and open with humor or be fun. I didn't take life too seriously, and finally my panic disorder went away. I no longer panic when faced with things that can trigger my panic. I was very happy and I realized that my mind was the cause of my panic disorder. Hope useful
You know what love I suffer from OCD and ADHD and my OCD causes panic attacks and anxiety attacks on the daily.. usually I don’t like filming it but when I’m on FaceTime with someone mid panic attack I will end up leaving FaceTime on and just having my episode so that whoever’s on the phone can witness what it’s like for me… you are very strong just like me and breathing is one thing that helps me and I’ve downloaded a stress app on my phone that helps me cope with my breathing when I do have an episode or I stress to the point where I panic and have an episode that’s just the things that help me

Oh Sweetie! Anxiety just shows up one day and your life changes forever. Much love sent to your beautiful heart. I’m wrapping my arms around you right now. I’m a 66 years old woman … Any Panic Or Anxiety Attack Is A Cruel Taskmaster. (I realize this event was two years ago, but just know I mean this comment as if it happened today). 🙏🏻 Going Up For You 🙏🏻
I'm having a panic attack right now actually. I looked up videos to help, came across this. I'm glad you recorded this. It helped me a lot and thank you
I just had the first panic attack of my life yesterday. I'm a 57 year old female. Have never experienced anything close to panic or anxiety before. I quite literally thought I as dying. I am visiting my father in Mexico, he lives at 7200 feet, and I always have issues with the altitude. There is 17% less oxygen here. I felt like I was drowning, couldn't get enough air, my arms, chest, and face went numb, and I had no idea what was happening. Also, it lasted about 20 hours, I always thought a few minutes or so was the norm. I went to the hospital, he gave me an anxiety drug, the numbness went away, I couldnt breathe any easier but I gave up the feeling that I was dying, which was causing the panic. Its been 24 hours and the panic feeling is coming back, but I'm trying slow breathing, distraction, and talking to myself about logic. Part of the problem is I also have covid for the first time so it is making breathing harder. I just feel like there isn't enough oxygen. I am trying my hardest to keep the panic away, I have ways had sympathy for people with panic and anxiety, but I'm learnimg firsthand the hell that people suffer.
I can feel the panic attack coming. I suffer panic attacks myself! It’s debilitating, it affected my life so much so that I stay home all the time. Anything can set it off, even a pen 🖊 drop on the floor and I will have a full blown panic attack!
Idk if anyone else does this but every time i get panic attacks i need to get a hold of someone doesnt matter who i scroll on my contacts list and i just need them to say to my ear over and over “smell the roses, blow out the candles”, just to remind me how to breathe properly. Because during an attack, my jaw gets stiff and my fingers too and toes and my chest starts aching and tears wont stop because im so scared im gonna die
Omg I get that like I feel paralyzed, and my mouth won't move and I can't talk. That's how it gets when I can't leave the situation/trigger. I physically cannot talk or communicate for a long time and just sit there sobbing. It's awfull.
Me too, friend. The jaw pain, muscle stiffness, feeling of impending death and dread… it’s a terror like no other. I also feel like my brain is going to blow up. It’s such a terrifying and horrible experience. Thank you for sharing how you cope with it. It’s definitely so useful to hear. I usually snap a rubber band on my wrist or use the butterfly hug technique when it’s mild, but I still haven’t found a good coping mechanism for the severe panic. It’s unfortunately ruining my life as it prevents me from doing a lot of things I want to do that I’m not even getting anxious about. A panic attack about one completely irrelevant thing will ruin my week’s plans.
As someone who comes from 14 years of abuse, little things can send me. I got a new car the other day and it looked just like my mothers. I was feeling the panic come on just looking at it, but my father encouraged me to get in. I sat in it for a moment, before I absolutely ascended. Crying, shaking, panicking. Sometimes there is nothing we can do to stop them from coming on.
I had a traumatic panic attack because of a PTSD trigger. I couldn’t breathe and my chest felt shallow and I couldn’t stop crying, it was actually super dangerous and scary. I haven’t had one that bad since, but I’ll always remember that I had my step mom and step sister there for me the whole time calming me down. I hope everyone here has some supporters to help, because now that I know how to deal with it, my panic attacks only last about 30 mins, when they’ve lasted longer than 4 hours
I have these all the time but trauma attacks where you can’t stop them any thing that re visits this trigger is like opening up the scenario it makes you shake no. Stop and you can’t control what you feel because you feel nothing just the body uncontrol you have is so unreal when you go into this mode - thank you for sharing It’s not always something that is widely recognized in this world and needs to be heard for those who have conquered battles bigger then we can comprehend.
True. I can’t believe I’m still alive and that is sometimes its own backward trigger. Im still isolating and running from being close to others besides my pets. Multiple life events of sheer terror and an alienating family and friends who won’t open to life’s hardest passages. I don’t know if I’ll ever be better but I survived and you did too ❤
@@mirandas9655 miranda only people who are suffering can do this now .. i am still suffering so i know how life is going with this .. we all have to now make a group for this ...
The pain in your shakey voice :( I’m so sorry the person triggered your panic attack. Usually when I get mine it’s because I get overwhelmed with simple tasks + my mood+ the anxious thoughts I have that multiplies because I start connecting dots on situations that make me anxious and what’s out to hurt me. Panic attacks have been manageable lately, just take it slow, one task at a time.
Thank you for being so incredibly courageous. You are helping those with this condition and those without it. You are leaving such an admirable legacy.
Thank you endlessly for sharing and utilizing your platform to bring light to this experience- you deserve the utmost support and love always and forever
I was cured of mine. I had horrible attacks daily everywhere and with almost everyone. I spent a life running from people bcuz of it. Mine was from shame. Silly I know. When I stopped doing what I felt ashamed of, I lost the anxiety.
Running away from your fears doesnt help you in the long run. I suffered alot of anxiety before. I still get anxious now and then but its more controllable. I confronted my triggers until they didnt trigger me anymore.. wish you the best
Just for you even trying to attempt to talk and even describe it, you're so amazing.. Incredibly strong. Sending over a prayer that you will be healed soon
PANIC ATTACK HACK: focus your eyes on ONE spot. Everybody knows about deep breaths, which are extremely important, but a lot of people don’t notice that your eyes dart around when you’re having a panic attack. Breathe deeply and slowly, and focus your eyes on one spot (it’s okay if they bounce around for a few seconds). The more your eyes move, the faster your brain moves. Hope this helps!
Yes- Doing this helped me. I would get them mostly in my car, whenever someone else was driving. Focusing on videos playing on my phone while wearing dark glasses really helped me to get through the panic stages. I was overcome with panic whenever my husband drove. The minute he'd roll up the windows, and the car started to move, I was overcome with panic. It happened a few times whenever I was in other cars at times, but mostly when I was in the car with him. Also when I'd go through the car wash, getting an MRI done, and when I got my first colonoscopy, and had to be put under anesthesia. I was thinking it may have had something to do with claustrophobia, but I was told it could have to do with feeling a loss of control due to childhood traumas. I was also told it could be related to hormonal changes taking place in my body. I don't know... all I know is whenever they occur, I feel helpless and am scared to death.
Thank you sweet girl for putting yourself out there. I suffer from ADHD and panic attacks and watching you has helped me. Im sorry he was not nice to you. If I could I would hug you. 😃❤
My parent worked in the counselor degree program at a University. She let me in on the fact that most people applying for the degree had emotional psychological issues which is why they were interested in it in the first place.
I went through an undergrad psychology program. I didn't think much of the people who weren't there because of their personal issues or loved ones. Too many of the ones who didn't personally experience mental health issues were creepy tbh they were too removed might as well have been studying insects
@@limitedtime5471 I agree. All the mental health councillors I’ve had, who didn’t have any mental health diagnosis at some point, seemed very detached and unable to empathise truly. Especially when it comes to ADHD and any anxiety disorder. It always felt like I was some lab monkey they were trying to study and understand rather than a fellow human being in need of their help. Maybe I’m biased but the one psychologist who was genuinely helpful and understanding, was one who had ADHD as well. I never even needed to overexplain myself, she would always instantly know what I was talking about. And that is of course because she had experienced similar things as we shared the same disorder
I once went to the hospital because I was always feeling weird in my stomach not in a painful sense but uncomfortable in particular situations,uneasiness that woud make it difficult to breath.The doctor told me I had anxiety, I hated it... and it could be triggered by some people or environment or sometimes thoughts. So I went on a three day fast 6am-6pm.I cried myself out to God and after the fast I came out brand new never had it again. This may not be for everyone, but my prayer for you is that God will liberate you.This is not going to be your life forever and you are more than a conqueror in Christ Jesus.
Amen,,,,,we have not been given the Sprit of feaf but of love,power and a sound mind.....mine whenever I thought of hell after I had an encounter plus car accident but by God's grace I'm delivered
Ironic how she's touching her hands like that but not trained to recognize the healing parasympathetic effects of accupressure in the hands . Probably just $$$ trained to give out psychiatric drugs with side effects. Karma gonna hit if you drug out your patients too for $. Fasting helps cause it resets your body and the Gut brain access but lots of docs won't tell you that cause they just want to drug you and make bank out of your suffering

I’ve come to realize for me when i feel a panic attack coming that i can’t stop, the best option for me in the moment is deep breathing and distractions. Counting back from 100 is a very helpful method for me.
ima try that. what i usually do is literally say “bring it on” and remind myself that its happened before and ill be okay. i also do deep breathing.
I don’t know if it would work because it’s totally not the same thing but whenever I feel like I’m going to throw up I will hum and pretend like I’m happy and having a fun time and it makes it go away. 🤷♀️
That's so cool, different things for so many people.
I get pulled away by textural feedback. Fluffy rugs and stuff are the best.
I never like to let anyone witness an attack if I can help it. They happen in the shower most times. I have mt daughter wait outside the door and talk to me to distract me. It helps
Yesterday das what i did
I dont think you realize how much it means to me to see an actual psychiatrist who still struggles. It's ok to not always be ok.
That's not ok

I’m a medical student, once I was seeing my patient and my attending doctor came and started yelling at me unfairly ( it doesn’t really matter tho if it was fair or not) and I was trying to control my emotions but then it turned into a panic attack, I felt I can’t breathe and Was shaking and crying uncontrollably and couldn’t talk to be able to explain that I’m having a panic attack, but she kept screaming so I just left the room and went to the ER and got treated, but my attend forced me to take the whole course again because she thought it was disrespectful that I left the room and told me even if I was dying I should have stayed, mind you she was a doctor and yet couldn’t understand what it’s like to panic
What a twisted nasty bitch that one, sorry to hear mate. Report her I would.
Sue her. She embodies against everything a doctor/teacher let alone a human being should be.
If I was your patient, your attending would have gotten an earful from me. I would rather my doctor excuse themself and take care of their needs (which are important like mine). I once showed up for an appointment and my doctor asked me what my last visit was about. He had only written one sentence in my chart…and he then told me right there that he was struggling with depression and asked me if therapy helped (I’m open about my mental health). Some people would say that’s unprofessional, but I don’t care. I can’t get quality care if my doctor isn’t okay.
Those are the doctors that doesn’t give a crap for their patients. If they don’t have sympathy to another fellow doctor then what can you expect with them and their patients?
I'm so sorry 😢 as a former healthcare worker that is struggling with her health and been on these situations myself as is usually the staff not the patients...yes, it is very tough.
I am at the tail end of a panic attack now, and I appreciate knowing I’m not alone. You are not alone
Can someone explain to me what a panic attack is? And what kinda things trigger them? Like for people to get Soo scared to a point they can't even talk what kinda horrible thing they experienced to get a panic attack so severe. I just want to get educated on this so I can help someone Thank you ❤️
Just know that you will be okay!
@@Hari-sn8re so basically everyone has an anxiety threshold, some people shorter than others
regular anxiety really pales in comparison to a panic attack
panic attack happens when your anxiety levels go way beyond the border of regular anxiety, now it isn’t that having anxiety will eventually get you a panic attack but when your anxiety just spikes to a level your body feels as if it’s in danger and your brain just decides to go haywire
as for how it feels, your vision can get blurry or in my case i felt a black border just form around my side of vision, you can’t think of the past or future because your mind is on that specific thing
and the breathing, it’s like trying to breath when someone is sitting on your chest and you feel like your suffocating
everything around you seems unreal, artificial almost and it’s as if your brain completely shifted realities and point of view of the world while having a panic attack
no matter what caused the anxiety whether it was small or not, a panic attack will genuinely make you feel as if you saw the whole world explode and you’re trying to cope mentally
it makes you physically want to cry and panic and cry for help, but that only makes it worse so you have to try to cope and hold back the panic attack which is insanely hard to do
and how people feel a panic attack coming, if you ever knew that feeling when you’re about to throw up or going to soon, then imagine that feeling but in your gut where the anxiety is and your brain, then the panic attack happens
sounds pretty crazy and weird but i assure you these thing are very real and people who’ve had one for the first time actually think they’re genuinely dying of a heart attack and go to the emergency room

🕊️❤ ❤🔥🕊️ Jesus is a healer. You no longer have to manage or cope. Jesus can set you free from the negative voices in your head. Jesus set me free from unclean spirits/demons of depression, trauma, triggers, suicide, anger, bitterness, witchcraft, fear, unforgiveness, pornography, bisexuality, addictions and so much more. I kept hearing voices too and thought I shouldn’t be here. The unclean spirit/demon made me starve myself, lock myself in a dark room 16 hours a day, and diarrhea 10x a day in fear. (no exaggeration) I really needed help. I felt helpless. I prayed to Jesus and I kept reading the Holy Bible and Jesus led me to a non denominational pastor and he commanded the unclean spirits to leave me. ❤NOW I AM FREE. No more torture in my mind. Jesus saved me and healed my mind, heart, body ,soul and spirit. Jesus is alive. You can be set free/delivered from demons too, if you ask Jesus to set you free from whatever you are going through. These are some online pastors that does prayers for your freedom/ deliverance. They tour to different states also.

I was always shamed for being “so sensitive”. My thoughts then and now, are it’s such a shame you’re not sensitive, especially towards others. I e learned different ways to cope with social anxiety and feeling attacked. I remove myself from the environment. It’s so strange to me that other peoples feelings were always more important than mine and made to feel guilty and abnormal when my feelings are hurt.
So well said
I agree! Being sensitive is a gift. Although we feel everything so much more and often have anxiety and panic disorders, feeling emotions at such a deep visceral level is a wonderful thing to experience as well as being thoughtful and empathetic towards everyone

@livetothelordjesus.5489 how do you know that I'm not already Christian? Therapy has helped tremendously not only with my anxiety but also with my eating disorder. God gave us the ability to lean on each other and also he gave my therapist the drive to want to help people. To say that therapy won't help is asinine, when god most likely sent me in the direction to get therapy to ask for help. No church has ever helped me the way therapy has, the gossiping controlling clicks that form inside of organized religion drowns out any real intent from God with their own selfish needs and wants.
Panic attacks are such a horrible thing to feel😢
Is this is true anxiety or anxiety disorder or panic starts from bad habits like watching porn,masturbation,alcohol or any type of addiction?

Thank you for putting this online. I always feel like I’m overreacting and start talking myself down and I know that other people experience panic attacks too. People talk about them but you never really see them, so this feels really reassuring to me some how. That I’m not exaggerating and I’m not faking it. So thank you for being so brave. This meant a lot to me. ❤️
I learned more about myself on one trip than I have through over a year of therapy.
Results have shown that one or two doses of psilocybin mushrooms given in a therapeutic setting, can make long-lasting changes in people suffering from depressive disorders.
I can't speak for everyone magic shrooms rejuvenated me, No doubt about that. It lifted an existential angst that I have been carrying for years. It never came back.
When taken under supported conditions, psilocybin mushrooms can cause self-described spiritual experiences that generally result in positive changes in the person's attitude, mood and hehavior

Panic attacks are horrible. You think you’re dying, you want to flee, your heart is pounding and you begging to cry uncontrollably. It’s taken me years to learn to deal with them. Thank you for posting this to help others become aware of what they are like and how to deal with them.

As an individual studying psychology and has had panic and anxiety attacks, this is very helpful and reassuring I can get things done and be the psychologists or psychiatrists and help others...This is very new for me and very uncomfortable but I am power and so are you all!! ❤
You are not alone with this. Its taken me 17 years to understand, acknowledge and know how to talk myself out of a panic attack. Its still very hard but anyone can do it. You are not alone. I say that again because a lot of people think they are the only ones, you're not. And that is ok. You are ok. Dealing with this pressure inside, outside and all around you is hard but when you learn to understand what your mind is putting you through you can win in that moment.

I feel your pain there is nothing worse hope you feel much better now
Ive had this for the first time in my life couple years ago.. Ended up in a hospital once because I convinced myself im about to die. And then one day I tried to sit with this horrendous feeling and suddenly I realised - its my brain trying to trick me that im gonna die thats it,its just an imagination,its not real,i will never die because of this. And then panic attack left my body and never returned. Its amazing how human brain works..
Ugh, panic attacks are the WORST I'm glad you were able to get away and regroup. ❤️My first panic attack hit me at a red light, driving. I literally felt like jumping out of my car and running. It Was horrible. Turns out I had very , very low thyroid. That is what was triggering most my anxiety and panic. Thank you for posting, and being so brave. You are amazing!
Anyone who has or has had an anxiety attack can truly empathize with that moment for you.
One of the things that helps me, if it’s available is cold. I usually have a water bottle with ice in it. Pull a couple of cubes and rub on the top of my head or back of my neck. It brings me back down pretty quick. I’ve helped others on a plane using this technique. It sucks that you suffer with this, but on the other side I bet it makes you a much better and more understanding Doc.

Panic attacks really stink. This morning I’m having a really good one. Watching you helped me, strange feeling of loneliness through my struggles. Listening to you I don’t feel so alone
I am so sorry, I definitely know how it feels. If you experience hyperventilating or shallows breaths I recommend to read something out loud. Like an article on your phone, or something that's near you. If reading out loud doesn't work you could also sing. It really helps me, it's also a technique used by paramedics sometimes when someone is panicking.
Have gone through this so can absolutely relate😢 Deep breathing and Chanting or listening to divine mantras have been of immense help. Anxiety and Panic attacks can hit anyone anytime anywhere so let us be mindful and gentle towards fellow human beings❤
As someone who has come from hour long panic attacks daily to very rarely having panic attacks my advice is to actually stay in the place that caused the panic because your brain thinks there’s a “threat” and if you leave you’re actually reinforcing that. Also take slow deep breaths, try to stay still, and tell yourself “I am okay, it’s just a panic attack and nothing more, this feeling is temporary.”
I hope you recover soon, I've never had panic attacks but sure know how they are.
For me, staying with the trigger is worse. Cus i experienced it in class and it was so embarassing.
If the threat is actually there though you need to leave. This can be very unsafe for women who have been stalked, all we have is our gut whether its influenced by an equally dangerous world or not
This depends on the person and severity of the situation tbh.
@@mischaraine1645 panic attacks *can* happen for no reason, but that doesn't mean you can't have a panic attack for a reason
Im so sorry u have to even feel this i had horrible anxiety and have ADHD so i kno how ur feeling but i can say the anxiety is nothing like it use to be so much better now.
I’m so sorry this happened to you. I had one of the worst panic attacks I’ve had in a while today. It was short but awful. Thanks for sharing these tips.
Thank you for sharing. It's so hard to explain having a panic attack sometimes. I just started having them. Specifically when in a car. It's the absolute worst feeling ever. Slowly finding ways to cope and learn to overcome.
ugh I feel you , it's one of the worst feelings, helpless, mad, anxious, dyspnea ,tachycardic , sweating , cant think, want to scream, trapped .
That’s called adrenaline.. you are the total opposite of lively..
I’m so sorry you had such an unpleasant experience. Being in the medical profession treating patients with anxiety disorders while suffering from a mental health condition ourselves, although empowering and allowing us to be more empathetic, can also be tremendously challenging, and it surely doesn’t help that senior colleagues, who should be so much more understanding, are a potential source of that distress. I can’t imagine what it must be like, especially since you are a psychiatrist yourself. You don’t deserve to go through this. You are so brave and strong. Much stronger than you know.
And you are definitely not alone. Thank you so much for sharing this difficult and vulnerable moment with us, and reminding us that we aren’t alone either. Sending you love Dr. 🫶🏻
I just get scared to be alone….I would search for my mother when I get the attacks that’s why I feel so scared to go out of my home thinking she won’t be there with me….. but now I’m over it finally living independently….you’re a very brave person…..
Why don't you do accupressure points. See what she's doing to her hands? There are accupressure points there that help activate your parasympathetic system and get calm. Are you a doc too? Dont they teach you that in your residency? Or do they teach you to just prescribe drugs to yourself or patients that have scary side effects that can put you into a toxic cycle. And that cycle will reverberate to all parts of your life and loved ones. You want to perpetuate that cycle with you and your patients? Stop the cycle now. Be brave!
I began having panic attacks when I was in my early teens and have been dealing with them for a very long time. There would be times when I wouldn't experience anything for months or for years, and then, out of the blue, they would return. Sometimes, to the point, where I was experiencing absolute panic at whether or not I could even teach my next yoga class, and this is when I would either pull my car over to the side and stop if I was driving, close my eyes, and focus entirely on one of my breathing techniques while visualizing St. Germaine of the Violet Flame or an Angel. Thank you so much for sharing 💕
Accidentally.... You legit were going into a panic attack while consciously recording and then all you did was put your phone down, while knowing it was recording...
Its just so insulting seeing people exploit mental illness for online attention.
I truly didn’t know it was recording and I struggled with whether or not to post this footage because it felt very invasive and personal. I decided to do so in case it could help someone. That moment was painfully and truly authentic and I’m sorry if you felt insulted by that.
Omg burst into tears seeing this. 😢 You are brave, genius, beautiful, inspiring. God bless you and your work!!!

Here for you I’m going through the same shit 🥺🥺
I gonna cry for now..i'm so related to you now..GOD BLESS FOR 2 of us and to the other suffering in anxiety..
The only thing that gets me through it is that I know it will pass. Like a wave washing over my head. I’m so sad we have to go through this. But I have learned to trust me anxiety. I write down all the times I have felt panicked or had an attack and it’s usually because of other peoples behavior not mine. It’s them not us 😭
I’m glad you got out of there
Bless you, it's not easy for those of us with panic attacks and there's all different kinds of ways we can panic, yet to many other people they don't understand and to them they either look at you weird or think you're being overreacting, or some are nice but don't know what to do. It can be scary for us or even embarrassing and during our panic attacks it's difficult to explain to others what's going on . I have various types of panic attacks, from this type here, to head jitters/ stuttering and my face can look funny, and it can look like I'm having a fit, to literally freezing on the spot and not being able to move or talk.
Stay strong everyone out there who suffers and take care. ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing your journey. I had a terrible experience in my PhD program due to some abusive practices and lack of support. To this day I cannot walk onto the campus without having a physical reaction.
My panic attacks get so bad at times my limbs start stiffening… one of the most frightening things I ever experienced, especially when it first happened to me. I tght I was dying Frfr, and that my body was shutting down. Good to know I’m not alone. Happened to me at work recently, which made me panic even more. I think this happens to me when too many stressful things are happening at once.

Poor Woman. I know exactly what she is going through. Guys, please let's always be kind to one another. Some of us really struggle. Sending her tons of love, light, healing and kind thoughts
Hugs really help with anxiety attacks , I used to have anxiety attacks a few times a year , since I changed jobs , I haven't been as stressed out , I only had 1 anxiety attack ,this year, because my Harm ocd was triggered and my intursive thoughts, kept wanting me to hurt someone, and for hours I cried trying to go to sleep , but it was so hard, and my nose became stopped up
The worst case scenario is when the panic attack occurs in the middle of a traffic jam, and you are caged in the car. I've experienced it on multiple occasions, and I, just like this lady, too tend to rub my ear nervously. What helped me overcome panic attacks are regular exercises. It really helps. I'm trying to push as much as I can it has a positive effect on my whole body which results in a better psycho condition.
I know that feeling well. I was driving on the motorway and had to move in to the fast lane to let other drivers merge on, immediately I felt this surge of energy come over me and began to shake. I got over to the hard shoulder eventually and stopped. I was shaking uncontrollably and began to cry. It was a truly awful experience.
Know you triggers and breathe.
Thank you to all doctors who struggle in making people have less struggles❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
How do y’all talk when having a anxiety attack or panic attack I can’t I can barely say anything
Some people have “high functioning” anxiety attacks. Anxiety attacks don’t always look the same and sometimes someone could be having one but u can’t even tell.
My first panic attacks I could barely say anything. Now when I feel it's coming I immediately start square breathing. It's difficult and there's no guarantee to surpass it, but theres no other way but to look for something that can help you personally. Apart of that talking to someone sometime may help, cause it helps not fall down to the full mode PA.
Well I have anxiety attacks they’re bad
But they aren’t debilitating for me
Yet.
I will end up crying and hyperventilating and sometimes I can’t stop it but I can talk.
It works differently for everyone:)
For me,I can't talk either.
She's experiencing light anxiety...when you have a panic attack you cant even move, let alone speak.
I’m so sorry you went through this! I’m looking, because I’m having problems now. Thank you for sharing this. My feelings came back seeing you, and I’m safe now. I hope you’re ok❣️🙏
I've had anxiety when I was a kid due to ignorance that people are not how I imagined them. It carried with me until I eventually realized there wasn't anything to be afraid of. I've also had a panic attack at work and just went home without telling anyone. I couldn't function. It was brought on by uncontrollable circumstances and I couldn't let the burden or constraints go because I was responsible for the outcome, which was partially life or death. So, while I don't have anxiety or panic attacks due to a physical problem, brain condition, or complex mental condition, I can sympathize a little bit with people who do.
Me too i can't even hold a damn job bcuz of them
Is this is true anxiety or anxiety disorder or panic starts from bad habits like watching porn,masturbation,alcohol or any type of addiction?

You are a trooper.
One thing that helps me during panic attacks and anxiety attacks is repeating in my mind to myself while I try to control my breathing.
(Remember, this is chemical. I am not broken. This is not me. This is a chemical reaction to the world around me. Breathe Breathe Breathe it will pass it will pass its passing its passing I am safe safe safe safe)
A pillow or a stuffed animal helps. Also, I don't like being touched or held during these events.
Thank you for sharing this ❤️
I like this video because not a lot of people can understand or know what your talking about when you say you have had a panic attack. I have had them sense I was young and people look at me weird sometimes when I say I have them and sometimes it’s really hard to explain it. My older sister had to help me learn how to breathe different ways. Your are very brave!!!
Ironic how she's touching her hands like that but not trained to recognize the healing parasympathetic effects of accupressure in the hands . Probably just $$$ trained to give out psychiatric drugs with side effects. Karma gonna hit if you drug out your patients too for $
i have panic anxiety, and the worst thing ab it is having an attack while you aren’t able to get away from the trigger. i’m so glad you were able to get into your car! you did a great job demonstrating the effects of an attack.
The way I recovered from panic disorder, I changed my mindset/how I think. Before this, I was a person who was always stressed, a perfectionist, a deep thinker and liked to overthink. I used to follow a very tight schedule, because I tried to control all aspects of my life. All things in my life value in a complicated and complex angle. Eventually I languished with panic disorder and I became more stressed and sad. So I changed my thinking pattern and the way I judge, I became more open, positive, not serious and open with humor or be fun. I didn't take life too seriously, and finally my panic disorder went away. I no longer panic when faced with things that can trigger my panic. I was very happy and I realized that my mind was the cause of my panic disorder. Hope useful
You know what love I suffer from OCD and ADHD and my OCD causes panic attacks and anxiety attacks on the daily.. usually I don’t like filming it but when I’m on FaceTime with someone mid panic attack I will end up leaving FaceTime on and just having my episode so that whoever’s on the phone can witness what it’s like for me… you are very strong just like me and breathing is one thing that helps me and I’ve downloaded a stress app on my phone that helps me cope with my breathing when I do have an episode or I stress to the point where I panic and have an episode that’s just the things that help me

Oh Sweetie! Anxiety just shows up one day and your life changes forever. Much love sent to your beautiful heart. I’m wrapping my arms around you right now. I’m a 66 years old woman … Any Panic Or Anxiety Attack Is A Cruel Taskmaster. (I realize this event was two years ago, but just know I mean this comment as if it happened today). 🙏🏻 Going Up For You 🙏🏻
I'm having a panic attack right now actually. I looked up videos to help, came across this. I'm glad you recorded this. It helped me a lot and thank you
Your not having a panic atta k if your able to concentrate on videos or research your having anxiety.
I just had the first panic attack of my life yesterday. I'm a 57 year old female. Have never experienced anything close to panic or anxiety before.
I quite literally thought I as dying.
I am visiting my father in Mexico, he lives at 7200 feet, and I always have issues with the altitude. There is 17% less oxygen here.
I felt like I was drowning, couldn't get enough air, my arms, chest, and face went numb, and I had no idea what was happening.
Also, it lasted about 20 hours, I always thought a few minutes or so was the norm.
I went to the hospital, he gave me an anxiety drug, the numbness went away, I couldnt breathe any easier but I gave up the feeling that I was dying, which was causing the panic.
Its been 24 hours and the panic feeling is coming back, but I'm trying slow breathing, distraction, and talking to myself about logic.
Part of the problem is I also have covid for the first time so it is making breathing harder.
I just feel like there isn't enough oxygen.
I am trying my hardest to keep the panic away, I have ways had sympathy for people with panic and anxiety, but I'm learnimg firsthand the hell that people suffer.
I can feel the panic attack coming. I suffer panic attacks myself! It’s debilitating, it affected my life so much so that I stay home all the time. Anything can set it off, even a pen 🖊 drop on the floor and I will have a full blown panic attack!
Hi do you mind we talk ?
Idk if anyone else does this but every time i get panic attacks i need to get a hold of someone doesnt matter who i scroll on my contacts list and i just need them to say to my ear over and over “smell the roses, blow out the candles”, just to remind me how to breathe properly. Because during an attack, my jaw gets stiff and my fingers too and toes and my chest starts aching and tears wont stop because im so scared im gonna die
Omg I get that like I feel paralyzed, and my mouth won't move and I can't talk. That's how it gets when I can't leave the situation/trigger. I physically cannot talk or communicate for a long time and just sit there sobbing. It's awfull.
Me too, friend. The jaw pain, muscle stiffness, feeling of impending death and dread… it’s a terror like no other. I also feel like my brain is going to blow up. It’s such a terrifying and horrible experience. Thank you for sharing how you cope with it. It’s definitely so useful to hear. I usually snap a rubber band on my wrist or use the butterfly hug technique when it’s mild, but I still haven’t found a good coping mechanism for the severe panic. It’s unfortunately ruining my life as it prevents me from doing a lot of things I want to do that I’m not even getting anxious about. A panic attack about one completely irrelevant thing will ruin my week’s plans.
As someone who comes from 14 years of abuse, little things can send me. I got a new car the other day and it looked just like my mothers. I was feeling the panic come on just looking at it, but my father encouraged me to get in. I sat in it for a moment, before I absolutely ascended. Crying, shaking, panicking. Sometimes there is nothing we can do to stop them from coming on.
You are a beautiful woman. Thank you for showing your vulnerability for those of us who struggle. We are not alone
I had a traumatic panic attack because of a PTSD trigger. I couldn’t breathe and my chest felt shallow and I couldn’t stop crying, it was actually super dangerous and scary. I haven’t had one that bad since, but I’ll always remember that I had my step mom and step sister there for me the whole time calming me down. I hope everyone here has some supporters to help, because now that I know how to deal with it, my panic attacks only last about 30 mins, when they’ve lasted longer than 4 hours
why u cant breathe.. my problem is same
I remember one I had during evening hospital rounds. Just couldn’t breathe 😐
I hope you heal doc. You got this!
I have these all the time but trauma attacks where you can’t stop them any thing that re visits this trigger is like opening up the scenario it makes you shake no. Stop and you can’t control what you feel because you feel nothing just the body uncontrol you have is so unreal when you go into this mode - thank you for sharing
It’s not always something that is widely recognized in this world and needs to be heard for those who have conquered battles bigger then we can comprehend.
True. I can’t believe I’m still alive and that is sometimes its own backward trigger.
Im still isolating and running from being close to others besides my pets.
Multiple life events of sheer terror and an alienating family and friends who won’t open to life’s hardest passages.
I don’t know if I’ll ever be better but I survived and you did too ❤
@mirandas9655 can we make a group of all these people to join there ...
@@YODDHASPARKS there should be a group supporting people with trauma and CPTSD ANXIETY DEPRESSION ECT. I don’t see why not
@@mirandas9655 miranda only people who are suffering can do this now .. i am still suffering so i know how life is going with this .. we all have to now make a group for this ...
Thank you for sharing this. It shows that we’re all human. Even doctors, nurses, therapists, etc are not immune from our own struggles.
The pain in your shakey voice :( I’m so sorry the person triggered your panic attack. Usually when I get mine it’s because I get overwhelmed with simple tasks + my mood+ the anxious thoughts I have that multiplies because I start connecting dots on situations that make me anxious and what’s out to hurt me. Panic attacks have been manageable lately, just take it slow, one task at a time.
Thank you for being so incredibly courageous. You are helping those with this condition and those without it. You are leaving such an admirable legacy.
Thank you endlessly for sharing and utilizing your platform to bring light to this experience- you deserve the utmost support and love always and forever
Dr. Sasha, I must be having one too, because you take my breath away ❤
I was cured of mine. I had horrible attacks daily everywhere and with almost everyone. I spent a life running from people bcuz of it. Mine was from shame. Silly I know. When I stopped doing what I felt ashamed of, I lost the anxiety.
Running away from your fears doesnt help you in the long run.
I suffered alot of anxiety before. I still get anxious now and then but its more controllable.
I confronted my triggers until they didnt trigger me anymore.. wish you the best
Your sound continues to blossom bro. I love this so much!!!!
If you know, you know. My prayers and thanksgiving for healing for all.
Just for you even trying to attempt to talk and even describe it, you're so amazing.. Incredibly strong. Sending over a prayer that you will be healed soon
PANIC ATTACK HACK: focus your eyes on ONE spot. Everybody knows about deep breaths, which are extremely important, but a lot of people don’t notice that your eyes dart around when you’re having a panic attack. Breathe deeply and slowly, and focus your eyes on one spot (it’s okay if they bounce around for a few seconds). The more your eyes move, the faster your brain moves. Hope this helps!
Yes- Doing this helped me. I would get them mostly in my car, whenever someone else was driving. Focusing on videos playing on my phone while wearing dark glasses really helped me to get through the panic stages.
I was overcome with panic whenever my husband drove. The minute he'd roll up the windows, and the car started to move, I was overcome with panic. It happened a few times whenever I was in other cars at times, but mostly when I was in the car with him. Also when I'd go through the car wash, getting an MRI done, and when I got my first colonoscopy, and had to be put under anesthesia.
I was thinking it may have had something to do with claustrophobia, but I was told it could have to do with feeling a loss of control due to childhood traumas. I was also told it could be related to hormonal changes taking place in my body. I don't know... all I know is whenever they occur, I feel helpless and am scared to death.
Thank you sweet girl for putting yourself out there. I suffer from ADHD and panic attacks and watching you has helped me. Im sorry he was not nice to you. If I could I would hug you. 😃❤
My parent worked in the counselor degree program at a University. She let me in on the fact that most people applying for the degree had emotional psychological issues which is why they were interested in it in the first place.
I went through an undergrad psychology program. I didn't think much of the people who weren't there because of their personal issues or loved ones. Too many of the ones who didn't personally experience mental health issues were creepy tbh they were too removed might as well have been studying insects
@@limitedtime5471 I agree. All the mental health councillors I’ve had, who didn’t have any mental health diagnosis at some point, seemed very detached and unable to empathise truly. Especially when it comes to ADHD and any anxiety disorder. It always felt like I was some lab monkey they were trying to study and understand rather than a fellow human being in need of their help. Maybe I’m biased but the one psychologist who was genuinely helpful and understanding, was one who had ADHD as well. I never even needed to overexplain myself, she would always instantly know what I was talking about. And that is of course because she had experienced similar things as we shared the same disorder
I once went to the hospital because I was always feeling weird in my stomach not in a painful sense but uncomfortable in particular situations,uneasiness that woud make it difficult to breath.The doctor told me I had anxiety, I hated it... and it could be triggered by some people or environment or sometimes thoughts. So I went on a three day fast 6am-6pm.I cried myself out to God and after the fast I came out brand new never had it again. This may not be for everyone, but my prayer for you is that God will liberate you.This is not going to be your life forever and you are more than a conqueror in Christ Jesus.
Girl STFU with that cruel religion shit. Them books just breed hate and request you to murder.
Amen,,,,,we have not been given the Sprit of feaf but of love,power and a sound mind.....mine whenever I thought of hell after I had an encounter plus car accident but by God's grace I'm delivered
I mean mine came
Ironic how she's touching her hands like that but not trained to recognize the healing parasympathetic effects of accupressure in the hands . Probably just $$$ trained to give out psychiatric drugs with side effects. Karma gonna hit if you drug out your patients too for $. Fasting helps cause it resets your body and the Gut brain access but lots of docs won't tell you that cause they just want to drug you and make bank out of your suffering
Stay strong. Sorry for that experience. The health field comes with a long on mental health challenges. Please practice self-care and thanks for sharing your story. I appreciate and respect the transparency. I stand with you, sister❤
