the best technique i found for overcoming panic attacks was to lean into them. accept them. even welcome it in as you feel one coming on. "hi panic, my old friend!" that way its no longer scary, and it probably wont kick in. and it works because its just panic. you know panic well. and you know it cant hurt you because you've been through it dozens of times before. lean it. welcome it. accept. good luck! i hope you make it out the other side soon

Advice please
6 months ago I had a severe panic attack and it’s changed my life. Scared of 99% of foods, can’t take meds out of fear, been hospitalized a few times cause of blood sugar drops and other health scares due to poor eating. I’m constantly scanning my body finding any little thing that’s uncomfortable and then fixate and panic over the smallest things. Whether be a smell I’m unfamiliar with, a weird sensation in my arm literally anything freaks me out….. who has had success with exposure or has dealt with similar issues. I feel like I’m unintentionally slowly killing myself but I’m too scared for meds and therapy doesn’t seem to make much of a dent right now. Please share some success stories I need hope.
