I had a panic attack earlier tonight which lasted over a full hour, my dad was up with me calming down but now he's gone to bed and I'm freaking out again, I can't stay in one spot for too long, my heart keeps racing and my body temperature is really weird, I keep shivering even though I'm hot and then I'm cold then hot again. I just want to fucking sleep
The worst part is there is nothing in particular that I'm anxious about, my mind is just working against me, how do I stop this? I need help
My mind feels like it's vibrating
Controlling your breathing helps calm you down during a panic attack

What happens when you try stretching, like yoga? Connect yourself with your body a bit, loosen up, since you've got this tense-ball thing going for you.
I'm sorry you're going through this, OP. Panic attacks suck. This will pass. I promise you.

The first and only time (luckily) I had a panic attack I cried uncontrollably in the arms of my gf for an hour, while feeling constantly paranoid of fuck knows what. My eyes kept darting left and right.
It started in my sleep, I woke up hyperventilating.
I can't give you advice, to be honest, all I did was tried to let it get out. I just lay there, crying, tensing up my body and eventually it went away.
I've had them before, they're horrible.
it seems to start as a chronic repetitive thought that feeds on itself.
I know this is bad advice, I've tried controlled breathing, yoga, etc, those help in the long run, in the immediate...
I hate to say it, have a drink.
Take some xanax or shotgun a beer
The best way to stop panic attacks is to understand that there are actual problems in the world and stop being a little bitch.
