Final Podcast AND How I Managed Returning Panic
Description
Hi folks,
In Short, this is my last podcast. I'm focusing on becoming a better counselor and enjoying down time.
And after having two panic attacks while speaking to a group, here's how I managed to get it in check quickly.
1. went to get physical and returned to medication, Setraline, an SSRI.
2. Identified stressors and changed my thoughts/behaviors around them.
3. Shared the panic publicly, which for me, was leaning straight into the fear.
4. Radical Acceptance - complete acceptance of panic, what my body was doing, and possible consequences of being in this state.
As a result, my body has greatly calmed down. It was a good reminder of the physical component involved. You kind of forget the feeling when you don't have it.
Thanks for coming along!
