Panic help: how did you get past your panic attacks? - Help.com

Learning about and incorporating a healthy diet, sleep, exercise routine and meditation into my daily routine. I started out by taking a class in stress reduction and meditation, read up on what foods or drinks I should avoid since am quite sensitive to caffeine, set myself up to get a good night’s sleep or got proper rest and started running and mainly swimming laps to practice my breathing.

i have a hard time eating healthy because me and my bf don’t have a lot of money for groceries……..

Also an excellent suggestion Mother of Peace. My friend is always talking about “retraining the brain” - getting the connections going in the positive rather than going over the same negative track and making it stronger by feeding into those kind of thoughts. :-)

As far as groceries go - you shouldn’t have to shop at expensive health food stores to find healthy alternatives. Just check out the fruit and vegetable sections at your local market. My parents even started a garden (both indoor and outdoor) when they first married and weren’t bringing in a lot of money. Check out your library and see what is there about health and well being. A friend got me to do this and it really helped.

i would tell myself over and over i was fine and everything was going to be ok. i took many deep breaths. i moved around a lot because i would tense up and feel numb, which also did not help. i was waking up in the middle of the night with them and i couldn’t talk myself down, so the comfort of other helping me calm down also helped.
