Severe Panic Attack in Uber on the Way to School

Panic attacks are so awful and all consuming! I'm sorry you are going through this. My very best advice is to; 1st immediately email your professors and ask for extentions on certain assignments due to a personal health emergency (which is exactly what this is- your body telling you to rest NOW). 2nd ask for help from the student health center to find a therapist to help. This step is an absolute must. Not only will they connect you with someone who can help you manage what is going on, it will either be free or very affordable. 3rd. Be kind to yourself. Listen to your body and rest.

I was told to immediately drive an hour to class, but then again the nursing department in college has never been known to be particularly empathetic. In that case I just had to keep moving forward, so I didn't really give myself time to process or recover. I would very much suggest taking some time off to center yourself properly before you start back up again with school and other everyday stressors.
