I have to go to work tomorrow after 3 days of rest due to the holidays and I had a really bad panic attack after a very long time... I have bad vertigo and I work as a security guard which required a lot of standing hours and as you can imagine that has made my life really painful.
So I was watching TV while thinking that I have to go to work tomorrow and I felt like an electric shock of cold ran through my body, my legs, feet and chest felt like ice and I couldn't breathe... I didn't want to take any xanax because for me xanax is just a band aid, I really need to face my panic attacks without help if I want to get rid of them. I lay down for 30 minutes and did some belly breathing while listening to some calming music (birds singing, water flowing etc).

Man this is so hard some times...
