I would say having a safe person for a while if you are able to then starting to find little things that calm you like sour candy distracts the brain and different breathing techniques

I’m so sorry to hear. Panic attacks are truly the worst. I find that going to the bathroom and trying to urinate or pass stools can sometimes help. I usually turn the bathroom tap on and feel the cold water and try to focus on the sound of the running water. It’s worth trying to calm yourself down and tell yourself that you’re going to be okay and that you’re safe. Are you on any medications that help specifically for the panic disorder? I hope you feel better soon 🙌 💕 🙏
