When I have a panic attack, depending on the severity and length, it can take some time to recover. A bad panic attack (severe hyperventilation, whole body cramping, possibly fainting, lasting for half an hour) can take me a day or two to recover. I had a 10 minute panic attack today and my stomach was cramping, fingers were tingling and my breathing went all wheezey (it was embarrassing) and despite having that over 4 hours ago my back and stomach still ache and I feel knackered. I don't think I've ever had a panic attack without needing a period of time to recover from the exhaustion.
How long does it take you guys to recover?
