Cognitive Regulation perspective
CR teaches you to read the early signals of a panic surge, regulate the breath and posture before the spike, and uncouple the body sensations from the catastrophic story the brain attaches to them.
Common signs
- Sudden surge of intense fear, peaking within minutes.
- Pounding heart, breathlessness, dizziness, tingling.
- Fear of losing control, going crazy, or dying.
- Avoiding places where attacks have happened.
