I might be too late for this one but for future panic attacks try deep, paced belly breathing. It’s the only thing that works for me if I don’t have any Xanax. I breathe in for 8 hold for 8 out for at least 10 if not longer until all my breath is out.

I don’t know if it will help you but it’s worth a shot next time.
