I woke up in an anxiety attack this morning...
and I feel like I can't get out of it.
Please tell me what helps you because I've been trying to "deep breath" for the past hour and it's not working.

 My anxiety attacks don't last long, but doing something that totally takes my mind off of things helps. Maybe pop in a movie or a dvd of your favorite show?

Are you home? For me, getting out of the house helps, even if it's just taking the dog for a walk.

Re: I woke up in an anxiety attack this morning...
i feel for you ! i have one about everyday. Recently i was prescribed xanax and that is has been helping. Taking a walk outside with the fresh air help sometimes and repeating a prayer over and over again. I call someone sometimes and that helps.. fm me if you need to talk . i know exaclty how you feel. remember it will be over soon

Re: I woke up in an anxiety attack this morning...
I can totally relate! I have such anxiety issues...
I try to 'self-talk' myself out of it. I use positive words and thoughts and ride it out. FM me if you want to talk.... I totally understand how you feel

Re: I woke up in an anxiety attack this morning...
I used to wake up with them often- at like 4am and not be able to fall back asleep. I wouldn't get drowsy until I was driving to school- I guess focusing on the road put my mind at ease a bit.
I would say- read a book or magazine, watch a light TV Show (like a sitcom), or take a long walk- preferably with a companion.
Feel better- I know it can be rough and scary.

Re: I woke up in an anxiety attack this morning...
Hi, I would get very bad anxiety attacks. I would put a cool towel on the top of my head and wrists, and either take a walk to get fresh air or put on as someone else said in the previous post a light t.v. show. My father also found an herbal pill by Nature Care, Anxiety Relief. That helped a lot also. I hope your feeling better. FM me if you want to talk.
