    Was there anything that triggered it when you was walking home or was it just random? Are you on any medication for your panic attacks xx

      Try therapy first a more natural approach then medication.. I used to be on sertaline and my side effects were rough but everybody reacts differently. And looking at your phone with the light was it dark? Because that will make you dizzy anyway, always happens to me. Your panicking about it so your brain is picking up on all the little symptoms going on in your body. Xx

    Set backs do happen. I have ben happily walking aling listening to music and out of nowhere ended up with a oanic attack. It hapoens.i dont know hy sometimes but that ends the walk and i go home all aggravated, nervous and aggravated actually then do breathing and a mediatatin if needed. But it does happen. The test here is how you handle it. You did turn the corner and you know what it is. Dont be scared or discouraged  it some pattern in your brain that triggers it just accept it as is.keep moving forward.

    I get the face pain, feels like it's just under my cheekbone and in my jaw. Weirdly massaging my jaw joint helps
