4 Steps to Dealing With Panic Attacks

Available for Interviews: Colleen Cira, PsyD

Dr. Colleen Cira is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist who specializes in Trauma and anxiety and has worked with hundreds of people who have struggled with panic attacks.

A panic attack occurs when your sympathetic nervous system responds as though you are in danger. A number of reactions can occur: one may feel hot (or alternatively, cold), dizzy, lightheaded, short of breath, rapid heart rate, etc. It can be really scary, especially if you don’t know what’s going on or feel powerless over the feelings. Here are a few things you can do to stop a panic attack in its tracks:

 1) Understand what you are experiencing. Recognize it for what it is: simply a panic attack.  You are not in danger. You will not pass out (research is clear about this even though it might feel otherwise).  You are not ill. It’s just your perfectly healthy, normal nervous system doing what it does best. Once you feel clear that this is actually a panic attack (as opposed to something else you need to worry about), you can just deal with what’s happening.

What Dr. Tammy Penhollow can say in an interview on
Back Pain & COVID::

  • I do not expect COVID to present with back pain as a primary symptom or even as a significant stand-alone symptom. Perhaps if the patient had significant pneumonia from COVID, then back pain may be present in the upper or middle back, but not as likely in the low back. Sometimes people who are constantly coughing can get sore muscles and feel achy in the chest and back.
