How to stop a panic attack

[@oneamericanpatriot108]

Panic attacks SUCK SO MUCH. When you dont see it coming and suddenly you cant breathe, you cant move, you cant do anything. It's horrible.

[@TravisTravels]

It’s inflammation in the body. Look up Anthony William Medical Medium and start his detox and healthy eating protocols. Avoid the foods and poisons that cause it. Anxiety and panic attacks disappear.

[@ottis4518]

​@@TravisTravels thank you for this

[@kevleafy]

@Travis Travels does it genuinely work? Iv read his first book when I had shingles in my face. Iv been diagnosed with copd and been suffering bad panic attacks wich led to me having a chest xray and finding out about the copd.

I was crippled with panic attacks for 15 years. I changed my diet, got rid of processed food, sugar white flour. Then started fasting 24-48 hours a couple of times a month. It was the end of it. Never had one again. Hope it helps someone out there.

[@JuanMFlores97]

Yea, you are what you eat. My mom is very much into holistic medicine and I totally believe it! It's definitely beneficial. I had an awful anxiety experience and it caused me what I believe PTSD because it was so bad and traumatic. I started taking supplements, eating better, going on walks and my anxiety stopped. Now when I started eating bad again it happens it again. It only came back when I ate bad countinuosly. Not just after one time of eating junk. Just a tip.

[@taylorjorgenson7230]

I'm a veteran with crippling panic attacks. I don't have a specific trigger. My panic attacks manifest as weeping and shaking. They could last off and on throughout the day or 3 minutes. I could be sitting down or having a wonderous time with my beagle. I'm currently in Brave Hearts and Circle of Change. They are helping to an extent.

[@melissamoonchild9216]

[@zyxvwu]

My crippling PTSD came from child abuse. I struggled with severe depression and anxiety for over two decades. My last severe anxiety attack and depressive episode was over 2 decades ago. Please look into breathing techniques, vagus nerve and diet. And just as important, committing to a mindful, slower life. What feels or seems impossible is really not. I wish you the best.

[@emilym8530]

I always distract myself by looking at the different things around me and asking myself what color they are and telling myself the colors

[@AwesomeAmani]

Im gonna use that thx

[@aryanjain6669]

I tried that a lot when my therapist told me but when I get a major panic attack this never helps🥺

[@bryanmacias4003]

This is great it doesn’t take the panic attack away but when the mind starts engaging in other things it doesn’t let you lose your mind. It sucks bc you’re constantly thinking about the colors around you even though you’re still anxious but to be honest you have to continue to do that until you feel relaxed. I’ve done this where sometimes a 20 minutes pass and I still feel super anxious but after that I get to relax again it sucks but you have to do it. I used to just curl up and try to sleep and i would have my attacks back and forth for hours but getting distracted even when I want to curl up in a ball and just stay put has helped me tremendously! Hope everyone is doing better and there is hope! I’m writing this while I have one but I know that I will feel better on a while!

[@dean1690]

I have been struggling with severe depression and panic disorder for the past 3 years. I finally couldn’t take it anymore so I flew back to my hometown as I live alone overseas. I did not sleep an entire week thinking about how I’m gonna get into a plane and fly for so many hours without a panic attack. I informed the crew about my condition and told them to just calm me down in case I get one and trust me it surely works. Your mind gets prepared and believes there is a solution if you get an attack and the crew is there. That helped me from getting an attack. I consulted a psychiatrist in my hometown and on medications and I feel much much better. Here are a few tips that I used to follow that might help anyone
1) Never find solutions such as biting a lemon or splashing cold water on your face as it might be a temporary solution and deadly in a long run instead try to over come it naturally. Such as - cook your favourite dish, play your favourite game, call and talk to friends never keep yourself idle. Panic attack is just your mind preparing for a war that isn’t going to happen. You aren’t going to die for sure.
2) Get help ASAP if it affects your social life, for me I couldn’t step out of the house to the shop down the road, I could never be home alone even though I stay with my girlfriend and I’ve had attacks for hours when my she isn’t around or goes to work. Regular therapy sessions are a great help, it’s definitely worth it and will give you a lot of ease.
3) Reduce alcohol, smoking and caffeine. If possible completely quit them. These 3 are the significant cause that trigger a panic attack. My panic attacks were at its peak when I used to drink regularly, I’ve been sober for more than a year now and I don’t remember when was the last time I had an attack.
4) If you’ve been suffering for a long time and nothing works, take the medications (it came down to that for me). That was like the last resort, I started off with 25 mg of Sertraline and gradually increased the dose. The first few weeks were HELL as it makes you feel more anxious and gives you sever panic attacks before setting you right. Common symptoms in the first few weeks include - head ache, restlessness, insomnia, body pain and fatigued. But once your body is adjusted to it you should be fine. My doctor prescribed clonazepam 50 mg to take with Sertraline for the 1 week to help with these symptoms and get sleep. But week 2 I couldn’t sleep and looked like a zombie.
One thing I can assure everyone out there, this isn’t the end. Trust me, I had multiple suicidal thoughts and was under severe depression but I overcame it. I’m still under medication (100 mg Sertraline) and most probably will taper the dose and lessen it and then stop because it’s not advisable to abruptly stop as you may experience relapse - in other words go back to the scratch and experience panic attacks. Much love and prayers to you all ❤

[@dean1690]

@@MR.Crazy.369 Go for therapies/counselling sessions. If that doesn’t help, please see a psychiatrist as the last option. Try not to be idle, try and go out with friends. Make a note of all your problems and assess them if they are really worth of being depressed. Find the root of your depression, and work on it. If you ask me, depression is just a phase it’s NEVER permanent.

[@CalmingKittenMultiverse]

I suffer from Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and I've had multiple panic attacks in my life. Been dealing with them for a whole decade, and they're usually due to family issues. I hate listening to other people yelling and screaming and banging stuff around. I get really scared, and my anxiety goes through the roof.
When I have panic attacks, they get pretty bad. I'm hyperventilating (taking in so much air into my lungs and my throat gets dry, so I'm coughing during that point), I'm crying my eyes out, I get numbness in my fingertips, I'm shaking and have a fast heart rate, and my body gets uncomfortably warm, and I'm thinking worst case scenario after worst case scenario. It's awful. Though it's comforting to know that other people go through similar situations.
Panic attacks are NOT fun!! They're one of the scariest things to go through. I do have means of calming myself down from them, like holding a weighted stuffed animal. Weighted things are very calming, and they usually help me in the midst of an attack.

@desjationna get a chest xray to make sure you don't have copd .. especially if you smoke. I found I had copd as a underlying condition but the anxiety and panic has been insane. It will and can get better. Iv only has 2 in the past few days, it depends on how much I push myself. If I do anything fast paced and my heart starts picking up speed another attack happens.

I suffer from what I think are anxiety attacks with no specific trigger. Tonight, I suddenly felt so dizzy and off balance (maybe due to dehydration, I don’t know) and it must’ve set me off. For the past 20 minutes I’ve been pacing in my home experiencing this awful thing. The wave of anxiety is unexplainable but those who have it know it very well. It’s just so awful and it makes you feel like you’re going to die even when you know you’re not going to. It’s insane and unfortunate for all of us who are forced to deal with it. What’s worked for me (kind of) is drinking a cold water bottle, stepping out into cold air, removing any prescription glasses from the face, warm tea and a banana. Also helps to have a loving companion like I do to help you sleep with a hug or massage. Also, pray! That always comforts me as well.

I just started having panic attack 5 days ago, and it's every day all day. I have to take a xanax. If I don't take a xanax it will keep going on all day. It socks. Scares the shit outta me. Went to er and they did blood test for heart and xray of heart and said I'm fine. I think it's because I broke my ankle and I have been stuck home for over two months now. No work since November.

[@kevleafy]

@K M I been having them for 4 weeks.. 2 or 3 a day some days. My chest xray show I have mild copd as a underlying condition. It's the panic attacks that scare ne the most! The copd isn't making me not be able to catch my breath. They reckon the panic is coming because my breathing has been slightly different and iv imagined the worse. Then once you start having them your constantly worried about more. I'm scared and confused 😏

[@delish9637]

I got a panic attack mid presentation and I felt weak all of a sudden cuz I couldn’t talk or breathe. Worst moment of my life 😞

[@ikcha7446]

I had a panic attack today while attending a case with the senior doctors in the hospital, I literally had to sprint the entire way to the lecture hall because I didn't want to create a scene.

[@icebear4826]

i had coffee in the morning empty stomach and i literally experienced panic attack the whole day!

[@qeemtinageeny1063]

Because coffee contains too much caffeine. It triggers anxiety

[@butnevertheless5401]

Stop drinking coffee if you have panic attacks, or caffeine in general it's not worth it. I HAD to stop in 2017.

[@zyxvwu]

YOU DONT NEED A LEMON. YOU CAN CALM YOURSELF IN UNDER A MINUTE. JUST BREATH VERY SLOWLY AND DEEPLY. Once you've calmed your breathing, continue doing but now calm your mind. If sitting down, close your eyes and focus on the calmess taking over. If in public, focus on a tree, street sign, subway map etc. I promise, deep slow breaths ALWAYS slow down the body and mind. And an anxious mind can NEVER live in a relaxed body.

[@somwhereovertherainbow]

The way yall describe panic attacks is crazy when i get panic attacks my body becomes numb and i feel like im gonna pass out i can still move but i dont like to cuz i feel like im lossong air

[@AngelMaggieGeorgeSwan.]

I am diagnosed with a panic anxiety disorders. I never fault of doing this

[@HassanHansenTV]

Lemon really helped thank you I couldn’t sleep I thought I’m dead

[@geremicagosto3039]

Just had one today for the first time

[@Skeetacus3]

About 3 weeks ago I worked out and I think I gave myself anxiety because I never had any anxiety or panic attacks and that day after the workout I though my heart rate was still going for to long and my sinus congestion didn’t help me breather therefore I think scaring me I had to pull over because my hands got tingly and felt like I was going to pass out or have a stroke. 2 weeks later I was okay never had it again until I went to the drive in movies and ran to the restroom to pee then ran back which then triggered that same feeling idk what it could be currently it has been ongoing for like 3 days im getting better at calming myself down but its scary it feels like im never going to feel normal again but i know its just the anxiety, ill be honest my diet was shit I had nothing but soda and sugary drinks and fast food all the time I would drink 2 cups of water if that a da, I also have been snoring and not breathing while sleeping so I don’t know what it could be stress due to lack of quality sleep or the scare from the workout and or constant 130 to 140bp over 80ish just catching up to me . I went to the er and they prescribed an antihistamine attarax but I don’t like taking pills for things I can try to manage naturally as we all should unless it’s a neurological thing can any of you guys help me with this or have you ever had this issue?

[@natashagates6280]

I wish you were one of my therapists. 😢

[@litezout5682]

Only problem with this is that panic attacks never happen at your house

[@Micheline.Maalouf]

They do for many people ❤️

[@ladybugbee]

They do.

[@robertmccall4028]

Yea they do. Last bad one I had was at my house.

[@cataclysmic_plagg]

I mainly have panic attacks at school, and on Wednesday I had a really bad one and my friend noticed and she handed me all the shades of yellow colored pencils and told me to draw something

[@zelou4970]

I don't know if I'm having a panic attack but i feel like I'm dying I'm hyperventilating I can't breathe I'm crying, I don't have lemones I can't breath
I'm so scared I dont knw why

[@al-batal]

Had this 2 years ago today at work my heart started suddenly racing and breathing was hard. Got so scared. I feel for you keep strong and try to distract yourself.

[@cassidyallengar]

You need to hold your breath this will increase carbon dioxide which relaxes your lungs and let’s you absorb Oxygen. Breath in for 4 or 3 seconds, hold for 3 or 4 or 2 seconds and then breath out for 3 or 4 seconds. Do this a few times.
If this doesn’t work do the opposite. Tighten your chest as tight as possible and breath in and out super farts for a bit then breath as you were breathing. You are gonna feel bad but then u will feel better.

[@goodearth27]

Sometimes it could be a deficiency of Vitamin D3. Need to do a blood test.

[@oliviaswann4686]

Kinda didn't have one handy at the work conference when I had a cold and the room was hot and stuffy. Luckily I talked myself down

[@ur_queen_maree]

Can u do one on how to handle them at school? I mainly get panic attacks at school and it’s rlly help, thx!

[@secretlyintroverted7939]

For panic attacks or anxiety attacks with breathing exercises breath in for 4 hold for 4 seconds and out for 8 seconds. This will reduce your heart rate and trick your body in believing that you are safe.

[@ur_queen_maree]

@@secretlyintroverted7939 tysm! That was rlly helpful!

[@tasrifasultana9223]

I cant even convince myself to get up and open the fridge 😢

[@justmelissa7010]

I had a really bad panic attack last night and I wound up peeling and cutting up an apple and slowly eating it. It was crunchy fresh cold and tasted really good and I think that really helped to calm me down plus, I have my dogs with me.

[@phylliswillis1298]

Omg! I thought i thought of this lol looks like someone thought of it first lol IT WORKs

[@cazandoherramientas1427]

Exercise helps me a lot also lemon juice is great

[@DistressedKnight]

I'm not sure if I have panic attacks or not. I will go into a sudden crying fit where I can't stop crying, it's uncontrollable, and I cannot control my breathing at all, it's just sudden gasps of air.

[@dancingram79]

I think that if I dont faint when I get up fromvthe chair, Ill surely do so when I look around the room.

[@euphoriaiamaffirmations]

To everyone listening. Here’s how you cure panic and anxiety. You stop finding ways to stop it and to feel
Better. For real. Research it. The way out of it is to feel it and go through it. Follow me for more ❤

[@GODsGift144.]

Chug cold water, it helps me. I found this out bc I thought I was being poisoned/laced💨 the first two times I had an attack and was trying to flush my body.. if that makes sense lmao. This is so weird and sad that we have to deal with this.

[@komet8329]

Got money also got panic attack😂

I can’t stand the overwhelming sense of impending doom when I have a panic attack. It’s crazy…….and I must be crazy for having them. They started after I had quadruple cardiac bypass open heart surgery.

[@billymoretz2292]

In my case i performe CPR on myself the trick is a little bit of quitness in u mind while breathing good 👍🏼

[@alexsmith3678]

I slap or bite my hand to distract my brain from it a little. My friends think I'm faking it. But I get panic attacks before my sport games,when people are staring, and when I'm alone. I just bite my hand hard and it helps a little.
