Dealing with Repeated Panic Attacks

Have you tried dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT)? It's the only thing that has helped my anxiety but it has helped so much. It's essentially classes of techniques to deal with emotions. Rather than wasting time talking about what stresses you, you'll learn tools to deal with stress.

Honestly, my best advice is to allow yourself to let it all out whether it's with activities such as writing or just simply letting out your emotions by crying. Once I allowed myself to let my emotions out instead of worrying about why I felt the way I did, it helped me a lot. Don't be hard on yourself, everything is going to be okay. I wish you the best and I hope this helps you.

I found the biggest part of my journey was putting the story down. I know much easier said than done, but that act of letting go was revolutionary for me. Can I change it? Was the question I started to ask myself about the story. The answer was no as it was in the past. Once I was able to accept that fully, my panic attacks stopped. I can now feel the stress and anxiety levels rising if ever I revisit the story. The last time they tried to get me to swap to a new therapist, I declined as I knew that involved reliving the story all over again, which I knew was another 2 3 weeks of anxiety, stress, anger and rage.

What kind of things make you panic? If you have set triggers, you might have to address them one at a time and get to the root of why it's setting you off. I personally panic too much for regular old meditation, but tapping meditation sometimes works for me. You tap on different pressure points while stating different things to help calm you and understand why you're in a panic. It puts me in a sort of trance and can keep me grounded. There are tutorials on YouTube if that interests you. Hope you start feeling better!

Everyone is abit different so some suggestions may work better than others. I personally use meditation techniques to help or deep breaths for my anxiety. I think the medication I'm on helps with my depression and anxiety. I also find myself more relaxed with music. I would recommend having a chat with a doctor and/or therapist to see if they have any thoughts/suggestions and medication that could help.
