i keep having mini panick atacks
I think this should come under 'mental health', but i'm not too sure.
I keep getting mini panic attacks. At night i get all scared, shivery and just start crying uncontrollabley. This has been going on for about a week and a half now, sometimes worse than others. I found that for some reason wrapping my hand around one of my teddies arms calms me down, but i was just wondering if there is anything i can do to help with it, or stop it from happening
Thanks
PS 13/f if it helps

Hey, Im fifteen/ female.
Ive been getting those for the past week or so.
I dont get them too often anymore and definitely not as bad as I used to
Buut..school starts in eight days for me and Ive dealt with a medley of major mental health issues the past two school years. I always start off the school year chipper and cheery but at the start of the second semester, it all goes down hill.
But I have other little worries here and there and they sort of build up on me after a while and sometimes I dont even notice until last minute I guess.
But since my attacks have started over, Ive made an appointment with a therapist for help. I reckon you might wanna do the same.
What happens with my attacks is that I start to shake, everything gets louder, and I just get this awful, morbid feeling like something HORRIBLE is going to happen. And the room just feels soo much bigger than it is and its like im seeing through a fisheye camera lens sort of..and I cry. And the only thing that really calms me down is to go in my room, shut the door, turn off the lights, and sit cuddled up in my baby blanket. Actually, its a comforter. But I like it :] and I usually have my mama come in with me to talk about it. It might be a good idea to write about what happens. Like what you were doing before and how long they lasted.
I didnt hafta tell you what happens with me, but I thought it might help you out a bit.
I think I get mine from missing my medicine or something but it hasnt happened from that before..
but good luck sweetie!
and my inbox is just a click away :DD

Yes, what that person said is true. Finding the root of the problem is ideal, but visiting a professional is even more so. For a health issue, your doctor can really give you much more satisfactory answers than we can. Also, try just relaxing during the day. It could be that your panic attacks at night could be a result of too many stresses during the day.
Hope this helps.

I've was in your same position a couple of years ago. Just a tad bit older than you, it could be something that has happened? Did you recently hurt yourself? Or see something or heard something terrible happen lately? That could be a factor. For now When these mini attacks happened keep in your head it will be as soon as you calm down. Count down from 10 to 0 wrapping your hand around our teddies arm breathe in deep breathes and out slowly. But as soon as possible sweetie see someone maybe talk to a high school counsler, doctor? But first thing is first tell your parents. What you need the most is the support of the people you love and parents are the one to do the trick. Hope this helps
