Had a cup of Tea at office with snacks but that too triggered a panic attack in front of seniors and now i am embarassed about my mental health
Will this go on as it for my whole life, i avoid tea, coffee, coke as it triggers my panic attack but if taken with snacks, the later two doesn't impacts much (i thought).
Ended up triggering my attack, any hogh pitched voice directly hitting in heart, the conference room suddenly felt too suffocating, cold, hot, nonbearing.
took Provanol but needed 10 mins alone to let it pass.
will this go on for life?? People at my office and officeboy finds it weird that I don't take tea/coffee instead i go for just Milk.
I am feeling embarassed about it now, family and friends understand it but strangers, coworkers, partners, managers won't understand it.
I fear this might turn into some Maniac attack someday (if kept suppressed).
what should i do, i have literally zero idea
please help if anyone has gone through this.
