Panick attack -Bad coping mechanisms

I get panick attacks often and when I get them I feel desperate to call someone. The counsellor says this is a bad coping mechanism I should breathe and learn to deal with this on my own but still call someone. 🥹struggling to not call someone when I feel like my world is ending. I find I get these panick attacks when I am cramming. I try not to cram but when I get behind things it’s that feeling again like my world is ending.

When I struggle, I sit down.

I breathe until my heart rate slows.

I remind myself that I'm safe.

I'm ok.

It cannot hurt me.

It'll pass soon.

Then I listen to music to stop the overthinking.

I break study down into small, manageable chunks to see progress and take pressure off.

When cramming try focusing on what needs the most attention , all you can ever do is your best 💛
