EP 282 - How To Calm Down From A Panic Attack (Foundations of Panic 3)

The Anxious Truth - A Panic, Anxiety, and Mental Health Podcast

HOW TO CALM DOWN FROM A PANIC ATTACK?
This is one of the million dollar question in our community, so let's take a look at how to calm down from a panic attack.
I know you likely want tips and tricks for how to stop a panic attack and calm down, but could the act of embracing, rather than fighting off a panic attack, be the hidden doorway to "calm"? Let's look at true acceptance, and unpack the idea that true calmness emerges not from a frantic search for escape but through allowing and riding out the panic storm.
This isn't about finding a quick fix. It's about redefining your relationship with anxiety and recognizing the strength in vulnerability. Remember, every moment of openness to the experience is a step toward lasting improvement and recovery.
