Hi there Empathy Erosion

Of course you know your street.

You have not forgotten your street at all.

You know where you live.

Even during this panic attack you still knew where you lived.

But what happens during a panic attack we get this massive erruption that can make us "think all over the place".

Oh you did still know where you home was.

You were just having a flood of overwhealming fears happening during this panic attack stopping your thinking.

It was temporary.

And you're here now making this post.

You still know where you live.

You always have.

Even during your panic attack you still knew.

Panic attacks do this to our brain:

What Happens In Your Brain When You Have A Panic Attack? How The Brain?s Fear And Threat Centers Backfire

This is okay.

It is quite temporary.

We can use our breathing techniques to gradually work our way out of a panic attack.

Deep breaths when this occurs.

Breathe in counting to 5.

Hold our breathe counting to 5.

Slowly breathe out counting to 5.

It is okay to have a panic attack.

We can breathe our way out of them.
