I’m new here!
Hey, I’m new here! Recently I’ve been dealing with panic attacks and it can be pretty scary. I have a condition that has similar symptoms to panic attacks so it’s hard to distinguish the two, which usually calls for another panic attack. How do I deal with this? My anxiety tells me something is wrong and uses my condition as a very convincing argument, which makes me worry more.
@LaughBox I’m sorry to hear that you are experiencing panic attacks! I know they can be really scary! What are some coping skills that you use to help with your anxiety/panic attacks? When my anxiety gets high enough to where I have a panic attack, I have to remind myself that I am safe and that this will pass! I also use grounding techniques to help with my anxiety! I hope this helps! If you need anything, please don’t hesitate to message me! I am here for you!
Greetings LaughBox, I know that panic attacks are no laughing matter! They are scary and you feel quite alone. I have recently been suffering with an increase in panic attacks over the last week. I am using the Calm app which really helps. Have you used it before? Really cool app and it has a section for Panic SOS in it! Nice relaxing sounds and meditation information. There’s a voice which helps you calm down. Also try CalmiGo! Really easy to use and it’s a help when you need it ASAP! I have found distractions help and the YouTube mediation for anxiety helps. Websites like this one are fantastic! You can help yourself and others by sharing your feelings and know that we all understand 😁😁😁😁. I hope that these suggestions will help and that you continue to be stronger everyday!
