Are panic attacks normal? I feel like I'm going crazy.

I wouldn't call a panic attack normal though you're not crazy for having it. It can be very intense and frightening because you seem to be losing control over yourself, but you will be fine once you learn to control it and what may trigger you. You can talk to me about it, of course!

Yes they are completely normal. You could have a disorder and what is causing you to have a panic attack. You're not going crazy, it's just the panic attack thats making you feel this way

Panic attacks are completely normal when your mind is running in a million directions and you're not sure which way to turn. It is important to understand what is going on when it happens and how you can avoid the potential trigger in the long term. Talking about what is going on is a huge part of managing panic attacks.

you would be surprised to hear they are very common. panic attacks are very scary whatever way you look at it. they are even becoming more common. when having a panic attack, try and focus on things around you, a tight hug isnt the best idea, try having someone hold you hand or put there arm around you, so you dont feel like your suffocating. if things get to hard with your panic attacks, it could be best to see your local GP or mental health professional

Panic is the human body's natural way of responding to danger. When we are faced with a potentially life-threatening situation, our body reacts in the way that we do when we panic. Panic attacks are a misperception of danger. They can make you feel very afraid and uncomfortable, like you're going crazy or dying. They are very normal and most people have experienced one at least once in their life. They can be very uncomfortable, but a panic attack will not kill you. There are many coping mechanisms that help make you more comfortable during panic attacks. Suffering from panic attacks myself, what has helped me is mindfulness. Guided meditation or yoga is a very helpful way to divert your attention during a panic attack and focus on your breath. Doing other activities like taking a walk, drinking tea, listening to music, etc.. are also helpful for people. Self-care is very important during a panic/anxiety attack. Do what feels right for your body. If you feel like a bath or taking a walk would help, don't hesitate to do it. Though it feels like panic attacks go on forever, they don't. It will pass and you will feel better. Take care of yourself, friend.

Panic attacks are very much so normal. Everyone has stressors or events that can trigger them. If you're experiencing anxiety issues or panic attacks, please seek professional help.

Panic attacks are very normal its usually caused by our hormones that soon become out of control through out stress so our mind puts us into a panic mode because it doesn't understand why the body feels emotions.

Panic attacks are extremely common. Moreso than I think a lot of people imagine. Some people think they only coincide with a chronic mental health issue, but even someone who would consider themselves extremely emotionally stable can have them randomly, especially if they are triggered by a traumatic experience, or any kind of stressor in general. While having a panic attack is certainly far from abnormal, frequent panic attacks, or panic related to social situations can sometimes be an indicator of a bigger problem, such as a Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social Phobia, or other corresponding mental health diagnosis that should definitely be looked into by your doctor. No one should have to deal with panic attacks. They can be absolutely terrifying. Don't be afraid to seek help for them.

They are very normal and very common. I can assure you that you're not going crazy. I would recommend seeing a doctor to talk about treatment.

Yes. And it doesn't make you crazy, it's just your body reacting to a situation which isn't as dangerous as it may seem. Adrenaline causes it.

Panic attacks are fairly normal. They happen to quite a few people actually. You aren't going crazy, trust me. You can learn to control them by figuring out what triggers them, then deep breathing or other calming exercises. I used to suffer them, and still occasionally do. If you need any more help, feel free to message me. I know what you're going through,

Panic attacks are totally normal, I felt like this when I had my first one too. They're really common and you'd be surprised how many people are going through the same thing! The only way I can think of is looking into ways to calm yourself down and stuff like controlled breathing etc… Just trying different tactics to see what works for you, and if that includes like medical advice or talking to a school counsellor or something then go for it, it can really help. It's nothing to be ashamed of xx

Panic attacks are actually quite common -- But I can understand feeling concerned about them as they are exhausting and difficult experiences to struggle with. Find ways to calm yourself that work for you is a great first step -- I recommend breathing exercises, listening to calming noises/songs/ASMR videos, taking a warm shower or bath, and other ways to distract your mind and body in a relaxing way.

Panic attacks are normal. My friend gets them all the time, just try to relax, remembering they will pass.

Panic attacks are 100% normal. Everyone has them at least once in their life! Some people have them more often then others, but yes. Its 100% normal!!!

Panic attacks can be a normal thing if they are not jeopardizing your health and the way you act. If having a panic attack actually effects your day to day life and health then it is not normal, please seek help.

I would say so. People experience anxiety throughout their lives for various reasons. Anxiety is unavoidable. Everyone will experience it on different levels at some point. I would say it is normal. But if it gets to be too much to handle, seek professional help.

Total panic no, but some anxiety is. Sometimes we get nervous about something and that makes us fear it, but when the fear is so big you can't move, breath or even face it, then something is wrong and you should seek help

Panic attacks are definitely normal. Everybody gets super stressed from time to time. Keep hanging in there!

Panic attacks are your bodies way of saying you are scared or fearing a situation or something. Your adrenaline has gone into overdrive thus creating a psychical reaction. x

Panic attacks are the result of an uncontrolled cascade of emotions, internally connected by associative despondencies. Panic attacks can last for days, sometimes even presenting themselves on a near concious level. There are several 'tricks' one could try to master to counter the worst of these attacks, but in its core, they are often the result of long term mismanagement of emotional imbalance.

lol, i ask myself the same thing. yes, they are normal when it's due from trauma, or passed down from family.

You are normal. What you want to focus on is how to best regain control of your mind and body so you can resume your life as soon as possible.

they are normal and everyone experiences them this is not a problem with you. please understand you are normal if you need help i am here

Extremely frequent panic attacks are not healthy. That doesn't mean that it isn't normal. You are not crazy for having them; however. I have suffered from them for many years.
