@BathysphereHat fuck that sucks!
How do you usually ride out an attack?
@evan I have Xanax, but that takes like 30 minutes to work. It's reassuring to know it's going to kick in even before it starts actually working, so that helps. I also reach out, sometimes by posting, but usually also directly to friends and loved ones. Sometimes I talk out what's making me anxious, but sometimes that's not even clear, so I just have to try to distract myself.
@evan It depends a lot on the nature and source of the issue, too. Right now, it's very much PTSD related, so grounding can help. Going outside for a bit can also help, especially now that I don't live where a big traumatic event happened right outside my house.
@BathysphereHat that is all good. I usually put my elbows on my knees and stare at the ground and whisper "I am not doing great and I need some help"
