I made it through a panic attack today without alcohol or my prescribed meds. It looks like there are two conditions that tend to precede a panic attack. One that builds up over time, like not eating right for a couple days, and then a sharply uncomfortable circumstance that sets it off.

What fixes it is to get out of my own head and engage with someone else. Long term get better at nutrition. I know the what but terrible at the how.

I didn't drink today. My motivation right now is physical fitness. Currently taking a break from the drama. I think.

There always seems to be a disturbingly wide gap between knowing how to go about the solution and actually implementing the solution. Sounds like you're working on narrowing it.

I was talking about this today with someone. The image I came away with is that the knowledge is a tool at your disposal, but it takes practice to act on that knowledge, i.e., you have to gain skill in using the tool.
