Have NC so I don't out myself.
I was in a car crash a few weeks ago and thankfully walked away unhurt.
This evening, however, while driving back from relatives with a full car (dh and dc's) I had what I would describe as a full on panic attack. It was absolutely horrible and I was on the motorway while it all happened.
I am home and dry but still feel horrible. I feel jumpy, my legs are like jelly and I'm exhausted
If any of you have had panic attacks please can you advise on what I should do in the immediate aftermath? Should I try and calm down with a drink, go to bed, chat to dh about it (he gave me a big bear hug and a cup of tea) or what do you think? I have tramadol (codeine) for back pain, should I take some to see if it calms me down? I really feel yuk.
Thank you.
