Anyone know how to stop a massive panic attack??
calming exercises?
not working
deep breathing
anxiety medications
Use deep breathing. ... Recognize that you're having a panic attack. ... Close your eyes. ... Practice mindfulness. ... Find a focus object. ... Use muscle relaxation techniques. ... Picture your happy place. ... Take benzodiazepines.
This is probably not a surprising answer but I've heard chocolate calms people down. Gives them the sense of peace.
@lexxii
none of this is working :(
Drink tea
Meditating sounds and a fan's wind disappearing into your skin and den just sleep awaiii @.@ Asdfghjkl
No tea and I can't sleep. :/
oooh i know watch hent..nvm
Maybe a candle and entertaining book.
Den burn du book wif du candle.
try not having a panic attack :D
You have to switch your focus away from whatever is stimulating the panic attack. Find something that you brain can easily focus on so that you can calm down.
im chewing on a staw its pretty calming
What if a person is causing it though?
fite a pillow and think of the person
murder them :D
I don't think I can murder my mother Derick
Or anyone.
Oh
Beat up a cardboard box
Pixel isn't exactly giving good advice. Just focus on something else. Engaging your mind with more sensory input can help (sound, like music).
Fite the pillow
Bruh that is how i deal with my anger
fr
Watch TV, or listen to dubstep ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
it works like a charm
I've tried :/ it isn't stopping and I can't breathe I used my inhaler but now I am even more shaky then when it started.
take a walk
I'm not allowed to leave the house.
chew gum
I don't have any :/
EAT
idk uhhh watch tv
Stop looking at tr3's pfp, that might help ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I've tried doing the breathing things, attempted focusing on something else, music, but its not working.
Then here is a surefire way: Stop panicking. It's all in your head =P
I can't get it to stop, I have small ones often and I can calm myself down normally but everything I am doing isn't working. And I'm pretty sure fear is causing it...
What are you afraid of?
Homework e.e
My own mind
my grades ;-;
Well not really the person itself but what this person can/might/is doing
i deal with that with my mothers roommate its total hell
The fact that my effort is just fruitless struggling as I'm nothing more then a drop in the bucket in the grand scheme of the universe - not making a difference, forgotten, lost. As if I never existed once I'm gone.
I mean what
shes just a bih some times
watch No Matter How I Look at It, It's You Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!
I'm worried of what this person is going to do
or watamote
its a chill anime
This person has a strong significance to you I assume?
Yes
Lexi try taking deep breaths
everytime i do that i cough
I have been doing that.
Try not to think about whatever is causing your panic attack
watch a vid about taking plastic off devices
What if I can't get away from what is causing it?
do you have someplace quiet you could go?
No
tell the person how you felling
Good question. I get panic attacks when I do tests n exams and when am beating my meat alone...n expecting mom to surprise catch me.
This person doesn't listen to me and if I say anything right now they flip out (well they are but it gets turned on me)
I can't talk about how I feel with this person in general.
But if you could talk about how you feel what would you say?
That I'm slipping again, I'm going back to where I was before, I'm scared for what it will lead to, scared to be in my own house.
What it will lead to is uncertain for sure but what is certain is that you can change what you do now
In this case I don't know what to do, I'm slipping and I can't go to anyone to get the help I need.
Do you have any friends you trust?
or anyone for that matter?
I do but the help I need is more with a doctor and for that I need to talk to my mother and I can't do that.
I get panic attacks when I’m around Lexi...khekhekhe he
Not funny @GlockParrot69
Oh 😐
I have MDD and I used to be on medication bc my MDD got to the point where I wasn't able to keep anything down, I was dizzy all the time blacking out, shaking, and my immune system started shutting down, and this was all caused by the MDD, my mother took me off all the medication like a year ago and I have been okay but then around December it started getting worse and I can't be well happy anymore (it sounds stupid but nothing I am doing is helping) and I'm getting to where I was before, in order to start this medication again I would have to talk to my mother about it so she could start filling and picking up the medication, but she doesn't want me taking it anymore
Why not?
funny
She doesn't want me taking any medication
I may actually be able to help u with this but u gotta learn meditation first. Once ur calm n ur subconscious mind is awake. I’ll give u an audio to listen to, it’ll help reprogram your mind and help change the hardcore believes ur conscious mind is clinged to. But first learn how to shut off your conscious mind. Here’s a homework for u. Try to keep ur mind empty for ten seconds. Try ur best not to think about anything. Btw I grew a facial bone structure out of this. Had this not worked for me, I’d take even be here.
I'm not a fan of medication but when you are getting sick from depression and its making you even more miserable its something you reconsider. @Ultrilliam
I'll stand with Glock. People rarely meditate it's underrated
