Q: Wtf should I do when I get an anxiety attack? I get them more and more often. I have tried: breathing slowly, calling my mum/dad or a friend, watching a video to distract myself, and pacing around. Nothing works because there's this overwhelming, cold, all-consuming tide of pressure and terror rising up inside me while my brain is trying SO hard to fight it and I just end up hyperventilating and sobbing. There has to be a better way to deal with it.
A: it sounds like you need to start telling a little bit of your life story
