Welcome to the site.

I hope this place can help you to feel better, or if nothing else, like you’re not the only one with this problem. That alone can go a long way.

Don't worry, panic attacks don't make you any less interesting, important or amazing than anyone else
Try to give yourself time when it's happening. Question what you're feeling, rationalize it etc. Is there anything specific that triggers it? Mine were mainly close to or during Math. the teacher singled me out a lot and my panic attacks always left my brain scattered. Oh the horror. I think it helps if you give yourself a pep talk and try to relax as much as possible. One thing for sure do not let it effect your attendance anymore than it already has! I know this may sound awful but I feel as if, looking back now, it's better to go to school and have the panic attack than to stay home.

Hey Braeden, have you stressed out the idea that you could be gluten and/or lactose intolerant? A lot of the time (and in my case) it was the cause of my panic attacks/depression and suicidal thoughts. Perhaps you could try a gluten and lactose free diet? It's worth the mention, trust me!
Welcome! I'm glad you decided to introduce yourself to the forum. A very helpful, close forum, this is.
