It wasn’t a bad day but I was driving one of my uncles and had a super duper panic attack. Hyperventilating etc for close to an hour. Couldn’t breathe properly.
I’m used to this. It happens daily but this one was harder. And it came with, not flashbacks, but little flashback pop ups.
I cigarette burn when I’m at my wits end.
I had dropped uncle off before having to pick him up again but I was still driving. So I pulled over and tried every breathing exercise I could remember and google. Didn’t work.
All of a sudden a lightbulb went off… maybe burning myself would help? I tried & guess what? IT WORKED.
I was obviously relieved but I’m also not quite happy that that’s the only thing that helps.
Anyone else who this has happened to? Empathy? Advice? Anything :)
Thank you
