myself said:
And then expected to use this same process outside the therapy room for whenever I experience a panic attack with that same trigger

Nope not for me

I can just picture me sitting in the juvinile court house lobby starting to expereice a panic attack coming on and start clicking my tongue tapping my forhead moving my eyes left right left right up down up down and saying - this will not bother me. Yup right one way ticket to the nearest nut ward because others in the lobby suddenly see a woman start tapping her head moving her eyeballs and making clicking noises and repeating the same words over and over again let alone what the judge would think if I sudden;y start experiencing panic symptoms during the actual hearing and start suddenly clicking, tapping moving eyeballs and repeating the same words over and over again.

I still use it today..... my T showed me how one can use it at home or in a public place to remain clam when distress arises - all one has to do is to squeeze their firsts together gently.... always starting and going left to right - just like one does with the eyes.
It is also GREAT for helping one fall a sleep or to get back to sleep when they are awaken in the night.

....... YOU can use your feet (when sitting down) in the same way one would use their hands when in public - always starting with the left foot first, then just gently just tap away.
