We just covered TIPP again, and i've been trying to practice that in purely crisis situations. Anxiety/panic have been high lately. T is temperature, ideally sticking your head in a bowl of cold water for 30 or slightly more seconds for the dive response. I is for intense exercise (just a quick burst, but intense enough that I wear myself out in under 10 minutes). First P is for progressive relaxation which I absolutely suck at and probably should practice after this post. Last P is for paced breathing. My favorite is 4-7-8 breathing (in as deeply as possible for 4seconds, hold for 7, breath out fast for 8).

Were you diagnosed correctly from the get go?
