Anyone here who can identify?
I am just coming off of an all night panic attack. It's been awful.
2 nights ago, I had a panic attack that went on all night. I finally got an appointment with a doctor. At one point, I needed a restroom so was directed by a nurse into a restroom I became trapped in; it was a staff restroom with a keypad code to get out (?!). I pounded and kicked before someone heard and got me out. This didn't help my panic attack one bit.
Then they gave me an appointment with a psychologist for 10 days from now. Last night's attack makes it clear I cannot wait. So I asked them to call me if they have any cancellations today.
It feels as if I am going crazy, headed into madness. Very scary.
I've had these before and often stop them with hawthorn extract or passion flower extract. Anyone know other tips or home remedies? Or any ideas about stopping panic attacks?
