answer:I do get them and take medication, but there are a few things that help, when I can make them happen. Going someplace quiet and ‘safe’ to be by myself helps. This isn’t easy with 2 young kids, but I do have a place set up where I go for a few minutes of quiet. Breathing exercises help. I also find hugging myself tightly helps. Sounds strange and when my husband is around I get him to give the hug, but somehow that feeling of being enveloped tightly and securely for a few moments helps my body relax once released. I’m told this is more than just a psychological thing but has something to do with pressure on the muscles and constricting the diaphram somehow. Not sure, but I do know it seems to help. I also find stretching exercises help. In the midst of a panic attack, I’m rarely in a position, mentally or physically, to do much physical exercise, but simple stretches help to refocus my mind and release some of the physical tension that seems to come with the attacks. I’m so sorry you’re experiencing these and I wish you the very best of luck.
