What do I do about a panic attack?

[Anonymous]

So I am having a panic attack trying to figure out how to walks across the street. So basically I have social anxiety and I be feeling like people in their cars stare at me so I have spent 3 hours on the sidewalk trying to figure out if I should walk across the street. People are looking at me like I'm crazy but I don't care even as an adult I don't even know how made it out of the house. I'm not even kidding I have been stuck in the same spot standing on the side of the road trying to figure out if I should walk across. I manage to get halfway there and not only did some car almost ran over me but I embarrassed myself by running back the way I came from and everyone in their cars were looking at me and people on the side of the sidewalk were staring and laughing. I don't know if I should call a hotline to help me get through this but I literally am in my 20's and I have anxiety so bad I sweat badly if someone even looks at me. I have been making eye contact with other people

Listing things you can see. Grass, tree sidewalk, car, road. It's called grounding technique. Google that for other ideas.

You seem to have it bad, just cross the street, jog across it if it makes it easier, it will still look normal, their eyes are mostly on the street lights waiting for them to change

See a professional counselor to figure out what the real issue is.
