Im so scared, I dont feel like myself at all. Every little thing feels different. The anxiety is unbearable, the constant panic attacks during the day, the worst ones come at night, I have a bad headache. Its just too much for my body. I feel so alone and confined, its suffocating.

Box breathing can help. Inhale 4 seconds, 4 seconds hold, 4 seconds exhale, 4 seconds rest. Focus as much as you can on that. Give yourself permission to pause.

Anxiety attacks are like ocean waves. You can't stop them, but you can learn to ride them out. Feeling that anxiety is ok. And you aren't alone.

I don’t know what crack my hormones are on this week but I’ve had like 4 different panic attacks at work today. I sometimes think it’s so silly that I was diagnosed with panic disorder until this starts to happen every 4 weeks. Panic attack followed by panic attacks all day for days. I feel like I’m going insane. I’m scared I’ll get reprimanded for staying in the bathroom for so long but I can’t have a panic attack out there in front of everyone :( I feel so scared ugh

My thoughts are racing again. My psychiatrist thought it was a good idea to lower my Clonidine dose, I don’t know why she thought that. I feel like I’m going crazy. I can’t stop panicking or freaking out or anything. I can barely eat again :( it feels like my nightmare from a few months ago when I first got bad is happening all over again. I feel so scared. My brain won’t shut up or stop thinking about what to freak out about next. I feel like I’m on fire, my skin is hot to the touch when I spiral. I can’t stop spiraling
