Re: Anxiety Attack? :/ - September 17th 2013, 02:31 AM

Hi there!

This does sound like an anxiety attack. What Alexa said about a stress ball is pretty helpful. They key thing to focus on during panic or anxiety attacks is your breathing. Breath deep and even. Try to keep distracted. If we're in the car, for example, my brother and I will do something like count red cars until we reach a few hundred. I heard that keeping your gaze on a non moving object helps. You can also look around the room and lists as many uses for a particular object that you see. Lastly, the scent of lavender also helps.


If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first


The axe forgets, but the tree remembers
