I had a panic attack at work the other day

@MartinTheFirst I'm not sure why I had it 🫤

@MyNameIsHurl how did you get out of it?

@MartinTheFirst went outside with one of my other coworkers for a few minutes

@MyNameIsHurl What do you recommend to do if I were to ever have one? 👀

@MartinTheFirst deep breathing

@MyNameIsHurl should I lift my arms in the air and scream "panic attack"...? 😰

@MartinTheFirst oh god, hahahH

@MyNameIsHurl im bad at this... 😭

@MartinTheFirst well hopefully it never happens to you

@MyNameIsHurl It's been close! Gotta say. Whenever the barber turns the trimming machine on close to my ear my head starts to shake, but actually it's gotten better with time

@MartinTheFirst you think he's gonna Van Gogh ya?

@MyNameIsHurl Actually i have no idea why it makes me respond that way, it's the same if I get eye-contact with a stranger sometimes. I believe it's because I start thinking about what they think about me so I have to think about looking right and what do they think about me trying to think about them thinking about me trying to look right and should I -

I believe it's a feed-back loop of thoughts and the way I break myself out of it is that i start looking around the room or ask a question

@MartinTheFirst yep, it's a perceived threat and most of it is subconscious

@MyNameIsHurl youre an expert at this hu? 👀

@MartinTheFirst it's my forever battle since childhood.

@MyNameIsHurl Struggling with panic attacks for so long and managing it is a respectable thing 🤗

@MartinTheFirst everyone has their special crazy, hahaha
