  5. 👾 So, some *evil geniuses* decided to hide their #malware behind a nuclear apocalypse script just to dodge AI scans. 🤖🚫 Because nothing says "don't look here" like invoking world-ending doom. But hey, at least it's an efficient way to give AI a panic attack. 😅🍿

  13. Why does a panic attack occur and how to eliminate it?

    Physical signs of a panic attack may be triggered by rapid breathing. Typically, these attacks stop in 15 minutes or less.

  14. Study suggests that getting your body accustomed to 30 second sprints can help to control panic attack symptoms.

    I like the disclaimer at the end:

  20. CW: Mental Health, Therapy

    Started #EMDR #therapy on Monday. It’s completely different than any other therapy I’ve done. I didn’t go too deep into #trauma from my past, but it was still emotionally taxing.

    Taking a 6-week leave of absence from work. Only 2 days left until that starts. Need time and space to find myself and get grounded. The last 2 months have been so intense.

  26. CW: panic attack, suicidal ideation, anxiety

    Hostility

    Everything feels like an attack. There's so much to do, yet everything places an obstacle in my way.

    Why is she speaking to me in that tone?

    Why did she choose those words?

    Why did she make that facial expression-why are her arms crossed, why is she standing like she wants to corner me?

    A forced silence takes hold, placing distance between us.

    Everything is out of place. So much to do, yet that vase by the window-the one the cats knocked over-still lies there. The pile of papers on the dining table might as well be part of the table itself. The pans on the counter, the breadcrumbs on the floor... all of it calling for my attention.

    Why is she cleaning so inefficiently? I mean, it's obvious that my way of doing things is the way.

    The same hostility I've been feeling all morning escapes from my mouth.

    Now she's clearly, visibly upset.

    I shouldn't have used those words. I should've waited for a better moment. I should've let it go.

    There's so much to do, and everything is a mess.

    I should've foreseen this, planned for it, had backup plans.

    I could have prevented all this.

    So, it's my fault. As always.

    Why?

    Because it's obvious: I'm not enough.

    I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough.

    I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not...

    I don't deserve to be around my wonderful family. They don't deserve my mistakes.

    Maybe I shouldn't have...

    Maybe things would be better without...

    NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!

    I know exactly where this is going, and yet I can't pull myself out of it.

    Breathe... breathe... breathe...

    Damn, I overdid it. Now I'm breathing too fast. My heart is racing.

    Why are tears falling?

    I need to lie down. I need to hug my plushie. I need to-

    But there's still so much to do!

    And now I can't help.

    They need me, and I'm not there.

    I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not enough. I am not...

    And now even my body is turning against me.

    I need to shut down.

    Tears keep falling.

    I can still hear everything.

    It's so overwhelming.

    Why doesn't anyone notice I'm not there?

    Why isn't anyone coming?

    I want to scream for help but I just... can't.

    My legs don't respond. My arms won't move. Only a few fingers still work.

    I AM TRAPPED, AND NOBODY NOTICES!

    Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit...

    ...

    ...

    ...

    ...

    This has happened before.

    It even happened a couple of times just a few days ago.

    Remember? The hostile words you thought you heard-were never spoken.

    Her facial expression, her body language-weren't what you thought they were.

    Remember? Things have been out of place for months.

    You don't have to do it all. You can say "no," you know?

    Remember how Janice taught you to breathe?

    How Stevie helped you ground yourself?

    How Wendy reminded you to accept your feelings?

    Hey-someone noticed. Do you feel their touch?

    They're here.

    Breathe...

    It was all a misunderstanding.

    It was all miscommunication.

    And even so, my energy is gone.

    Last Night Anxiety/Panic Attack

    I’m not a psychologist, but in that moment, I just wanted to cry. Nothing bad happened, yet I felt sadness rise inside me, and old wounds came back to mind

  28. Panic attack while watching YouTube video about betterhelp. I'd say it's a joke itself. And it's not connected.

    But just marking the yet another #panicattack ;)

  29. I've been through so many traumatic events in my life that I can't even put them into words. 2020 was a dream year compared to 2023 and 2024. This year has been one of recovery in many ways.

    A telling example is that this week, from Monday to Friday, was nearly perfect. I felt fine, and current events are going well, considering the circumstances. But on Friday, when I finally got off work and was supposed to relax, I fell into a deep mental pit. At 3am, I woke up in the midst of a pretty bad panic attack. My autonomic nervous system was in a state of shock.

    Today, I feel somewhat baffled by all this. I know I can cope - and I will thrive. This too shall pass; it will just take time, perhaps months or years. This too makes me stronger.

  30. Set minuts eterns.

    Set minuts eterns.

    Avui ha estat un dia fluix. No estic fi. No és que hagi passat res dolent (ni res bo), però la meva ment sembla una habitació amb les persianes abaixades: ni entra llum, ni en surt. Pujo a l’ordinador com cada tarda a aquesta hora, amb la precisió d’un ritual. La pantalla s’encén, i per un moment, em sento en territori conegut. Aquí, entre finestres de Discord, l’últim projecte inacabat del meu servidor domèstic, xarxes socials i qualsevol cosa que em serveixi per no pensar massa, controlo el que puc. O almenys, faig veure que controlo.

    El primer senyal és una pressió al pit. Subtil, com si algú m’hagués posat una mà invisible sobre l’estèrnum. «Oh, no. Altra vegada», penso, i intento ignorar-ho. Però el cor comença a córrer, com un cavall espantat que fuig cap a un lloc que ni ell mateix coneix. La respiració s’entrebanca. Inspiro… 1, 2, 3… Recordo la tècnica dels 10 segons: inspiro, retinc, expiro. Ho he practicat milers de vegades des que era un nen, quan els psicòlegs em deien que «centrarse en respirar ajudava a calmar-se».

    El cap s’emboira. La pantalla de l’ordinador es desenfoca, però els ulls continuen fixos en un mem del Discord: el clàssic, “Capità, només és dimecres!”. Intento riure, però el somriure es converteix en una ganyota estranya. No és real, em dic. És l’ansietat. Sé que és ella, però saber-ho no em salva. La pressió al pit augmenta. Sembla que tinc una roca destrossant-me les costelles, i cada intent d’inspirar és una negociació amb el buit.

    Els dits se’m pengen sobre el teclat, immòbils. «Hauries de tancar els ulls», em mana una veu interior. Però tancar-los em fa veure coses pitjors: imatges fragmentades de dies passats, converses mai tingudes, futures caigudes. Obre’ls, i el món és un remolí de missatges que no llegeixo. Cago en tot. La sala està en silenci, però dins meu hi ha un terratrèmol. Les cames em tremolen com si el sòl s’hagués convertit en gelatina. «Això no té sentit –penso–, avui no ha sigut un dia dolent». Però l’ansietat no demana permís.

    Procuro tornar a la respiració: 10 segons dins… 10 segons fora… Però els números es desfan. El 7 s’enreda amb el 3, el 10 es converteix en 100. El temps s’estira com una goma, i tot al meu voltant es mou a càmera ràpida mentre jo em quedo encallat en un segon etern. La suor freda em regalima per l’esquena. «No et rendeixis –em dic–, només és químic, només és por». Però la por és un animal que s’alimenta de raons.

    En algun racó de la meva ment, encara hi ha una part lògica que observa. La part que va aprendre a gestionar-se després de quaranta anys de maleir el propi cervell. «Això és un atac de pànic –m’explica, com un metge distant–. No et matarà. Passarà». Però la resta de mi no escolta. La resta de mi és un nen assegut a la consulta d’un psicòleg, comptant fins a deu mentre li expliquen que «els nens valents no ploren».

    Els minuts es dilaten. Cada intent de controlar la respiració és com intentar apagar un incendi amb un got d’aigua. «Què coi l’ha detonat? –em pregunto–. No he begut cafè avui, he dormit… bé, he dormit poc, però…». Les excuses sonen buides. L’ansietat no necessita motius.

    De sobte, un soroll em sacseja: el Discord notifica un missatge que no llegeixo. El so em travessa com un punyal. «No pots atendre ara –em dic–, ni tan sols veure qui és». Però la culpa s’afegeix a la barreja: Seria tan fàcil mirar-lo… Però no puc. La mà es nega a moure’s. És com si l’aire s’hagués tornat espès, com melassa.

    Passen… no sé quant. Potser segons, potser hores. Tot i que el rellotge s’entesti a dir que han passat només set minuts. El cor comença a desaccelerar-se, com un tren frenant en una estació fantasma. La pressió al pit es redueix a un peso sord, i la ment comença a desembolicar-se. «Ho estàs superant –xiuxiueja la veu lògica–. Ja passa». Però «passar» no és guanyar. És sobreviure.

    Quan per fi puc moure els dits, els clavo en el teclat. Escric paraules sense sentit a la finestra del xat: asdf[poiqewrgqwe dasfqewrty. És l’única manera de demostrar-me que encara tinc control sobre alguna cosa. Les lletres es multipliquen, formant un exèrcit de lletres que mai tindran cap mena de sentit. Suposo que és millor així.

    Al final, quan l’atac es retira com una ona que torna al mar, em quedo esgotat. Físicament, com si hagués corregut una marató amb les cames lligades. Emocionalment, com si m’haguessin buidat per dins. «La guerra no ha acabat –em recordo–. Només has sobreviscut una altra batalla». Però en el fons, sé que és més que això: és persistir.

    Miro el Discord. El galimaties encara hi és, quiet, inalterable. «Una altra vegada ho has aconseguit», li dic en veu baixa, com si els caràcters em poguessin sentir. No sé si parlo de l’atac o de mi mateix mentre esborro el missatge enviat amb l’esperança que ningú l’hagi vist.

    Tinc ganes d’anar a fer-me una bola al racó, com sempre desitjo després d’aquests episodis. Però avui no. Avui m’assec aquí, mirant el xat, i penso en aquella regla absurda: «Els nens valents no ploren». I malgrat tot, no ploro. No perquè sigui valent, sinó perquè ni tan sols tinc forces per això. Les llàgrimes són un luxe que el meu cos sembla haver oblidat.

    No em sento com si hagués guanyat contra l’ansietat avui. Collons, quina putada tot plegat.

  32. It was even incorporated into a dream last night where I was using it to comfort 2 small children with their anxiety. Not sure who they were since there are no small children in my life. Perhaps the girl was my younger self? 💟 We thanked anxiety for alerting us to danger + gave evidence we were safe.

    💟🌟💟

    Yesterday was an emotionally exhausting day but I listened to my body + rested. Today is meal prep.

  33. I spoke with someone Friday evening about her trauma coping skills and have been using one of her tips to thank my anxiety. She said it seems counterintuitive but works. She said anxiety just wants you to pay attention and make sure you’re safe.

    I’ve been thanking my anxiety for alerting me to danger and giving it evidence that I’m safe and it has worked the past 2 nights. 😃
