Did you ever expirienced a panic attack or a panic disorder and how did you got through this?

[LiliTyaka]

Its been awhile for me that i had a panic disorder and sadly its back again since today and its so devastating...

Yea, it's actually quite easy to control once you get the hang of it, normally it feels like you can't breathe, you empty your mind by thinking of just a color then take slow deep breaths, do it loud so you can hear the inhale and exhale, hearing yourself breathing a long with just a color in mind will bring your heart rate down and you'll be back to normal in a few seconds

Personally I think of the color black because if you close your eyes, it the color you see which helps clear the mind a lot easier

I visited a large, powerful buddy when he was sleeping and when he answered the door with a beet-red, angry face, I thought he'd beat me up and I had something like a panic attack, which ended in a couple of minutes when his face retuned to its normal hue and we spoke amiably.

I think I had two panic attacks recently. My face/jaw went all tingly, I got very tired and I felt like I was going to faint. I learnt (after the second time) that what helped me was trying to regulate my breathing, breathing slow and looking around me for 5 things that had the colour red in them.

I'd have had (at the VERY least) a panic attack had I watched Trump's inauguration !!!

It constantly happened as a young teen, mainly due to having to play piano in front of an audience, but then I forced myself into a public speaking course, and it gave me amazing confidence. Since then, I haven't encountered any issues.

The hyperventilation can present with many different symptoms. Slow down breathe into a brown bag. It is counterintuitive but it works. The chest pain will subside and the numb lips will regain their sensitivity.

I used to struggle with a pretty crippling panic disorder. Then I started dating transgender women, and suddenly, I stopped getting panic attacks. Maybe that's the cure.

Anxiety and c-ptsd. I just keep to myself and hope it's over quickly
