Its just a panic attack, nothing else. Do you have any medication you can take? You could do some exercise to get rid of the adrenaline, then try and focus on something, you could read a book - try reading the words out aloud so you are focused on reading and talking and you hear the words too. Try distracting yourself too, you can try counting backwards from 100 in 3's, so you are thinking about numbers and calculating them. It doesn't matter if you aren't 100% correct.

They do eventually go, don't worry!

Hi, you have to ride the wave and let it come and go. It's like a phase in my opinion.
I know they are bloody hurrendous and if someone's not been through someone like this they could never believe how bad this is.
It's soul destroying and debilitating. Go with it, with the thought - this will pass and try a new hobby, force your brain to think about other things not just on your self.
Take manuka honey and magnesium. Try tapping exercises and small walks. Then with time you can goon longer walks and your confidence will increase. Right now take baby steps and occupy your mind with something else.
