Im 18, when i am alone at home i sometimes have terrible panic attacks that scare me only thinking about it.
Im scared to be alone, the pain that i feel has no words, i start to feel brethless and sometimes i feel so much panic that i start to think about suicide. What can i do? I can’t take this.
Just be very calm and serene I used to get terrible panic attacks just realize that pain is natures way of telling you HEY Your still alive but dude if you want them to stop try curling up into the fetal position or if that doesn’t work or possibly try this first try martial arts or meditation or both and by the way you are 18 panic attacks are very common for your age it’s just your body learning it’s or hardware& software in order to make you a well adjusted human being it’s like testing a surge protector by shocking it somtimes you get a jolt (your panic attacks) sometimes the S.P. works and you have eg.a groth spurt or get aroused for no reason so just roll with the punches and be well young one.
Try to focus on something else…busy yourself with something…you could also consider seeing a doc…maybe getting a pill to help you until you learn to control it on your own
Take a walk outside, and focus on something. It does help.
Good luck
Yes.. defiantly try to think of something else. I used to get panic attacks. Whenever i felt one coming on i would make myself think of something else. I would also read a book or if you don’t like reading watch TV or movies. Anything that will get your mind off it. Call your friends or hang out with them. that’s what i used to do every time and i conquered them on my own without medication. I am so much happier now, so just make sure you don’t think of panic attacks and learn to know why you have them or w/e. I learned what used to trigger them so i now avoid it. Just do something and really get into it and it will help loads. hope i helped!
