What's the longest you've gone without panicking in public since becoming an "adult"? How did you go for so long then?

>> No.8686002

Depends on how you define panicking.

For example, if I become nervous enough that I start to feel detached from reality, is that panicking?

>> No.8686010

I can not panic indefinitely for as long as I am intoxicated. Unfortunately, I cannot be intoxicated indefinitely.

That's derealization. Panicking is when you run into the street at full speed because you think your waifu is trying to feed you poisonous elephant tea.

>> No.8686020

>>8686016
It still makes me shut down though. No matter how hard I try, I can't function when it happens. And it happens even now that I'm in college.

But in that case, I guess I probably haven't panicked since I was in middle school.

>> No.8686027

I never really get panick attacks or so nervous I'm not lucid and/or I start blabbering.
Most of it goes straight into my fucking stomach, I don't sweat, I don't shiver, it's just my mind punishing my guts.
I hate that shit, it's actually became an habit so everytime I feel some stomachache I start getting nervous as a reflex action.

No, in college. Lots of group work between classes (and I skipped one of my classes to work on the stupid project, too). I didn't panic at the end of the day, but I did take a nap.

>> No.8686679

I've always panicked as far as I'm aware, just to varying degrees. I used to be able to last the few hours I was at college, though I'd be plagued by chronic stomach pains and mostly mute and not manage to turn up every day, after finishing college (on my second try, after failing at the first one due to the amount of students, I had to find one with single digit students in the class) and getting grades good enough to go into a good university I found it unbearable though - far too many people. Low numbers of people worry me too though, you stand out more if you can't hide in a crowd. Haven't left the house since dropping out of university.

I do the same thing, except I instead spend my time imagining that I'm having conversations with imaginary people in this imaginary world I put together in my head.

Also, whenever I'm walking anywhere in public I try to change certain aspects of the appearance of my surroundings using my imagination, and I of course exclude all of the people from this image. It helps me to remain calm.

Interesting question.

When I'm in public, I'm always in panic mode, I start to get dizzy and think wierd things to myself.

But I can put up with it. I'm really good at hiding it...until spaghetti starts falling out of my pockets. Thats when I know I'm fucked.

Alcohol is great for this. It may sound depressing or alcoholic, but just have a couple of pints before you leave the house. Don't get DRUNK, just get slightly tiddly and the outside word is a lot easier.

I'm surprised doctors don't prescribe vodka for the treatment of anxiety.

Unfortunately, this is the difficult part once you get dependant. Maybe I should look into drugs instead.

>> No.8690996

>>8690960
I'm not sure if you're trolling or being serious, but I'll give a serious reply anyway. That's just not how doctors work. First alchohol has many, many MANY other side effects, all of which are negative. Then again, they just can't prescribe something that could get their patients seriously addicted, like if a doctor said "just drink some alcohol before you go out" 90% of their ansiety patients would never know when to stop, because that's also one of the side effects of alcohol consumption. Also, It doesn't really cure ansiety, rather just hides it momentarily really.

Are you disagreeing on that? I'll give some drugs can be physically addictive, but the treatment is made in such a way where once the problem is solved (or being solved) the meds are slowly taken away, and no withdrawl crisis or retrocess should happen (usually).
