“ Eremin is canon,“ I say into the mic.

The crowd boos. I begin to walk off in shame, when a voice speaks and commands silence from the room.

"He’s right,” they say. I look for the owner of the voice. There in the 5th row, Hajime Isayama himself

“Dude, why’re you here?” He smiled feverishly. Beneath all of his curls and that blatant coffee addiction was a dude who didn’t seem all that bad. He certainly was cute to Alfred’s standards. Maybe even hot.

“Your friend . . . the blonde one? He let me in,” the boy’s dimpled cheeks turned upwards into a sheepishly embarrassed smile that pointed towards the marbled floor.

It was heartwarmingly adorable.

I don’t know if some people just experience panic attacks way different from the way I do, but a lot of writers seem to write panic attacks as thought they read a list of symptoms and just picked some to go with. Here are things for writing panic attacks:

I always, always notice when a panic attack is starting. The panic is usually a pretty good indicator of it. Why do all of your charaters end up mid-panic attack before they notice the panic attack is happening?

Panic attacks should include at least 80% more thinking than they’re usually written as including. The thoughts can/should be disjointed, incoherent, and repetitive. The reader should feel like the character is panicking instead of having to be told that they’re panicking.

Panic attack symptoms don’t abruptly disappear when the main panic attack stops. A person isn’t automatically fine 30 seconds after finishing having a panic attack.

There are varying degrees of panic attacks.

Go with symptoms beyond “can’t breathe and feeling like I’m going to die”.

Please.

Look up some other symptoms. Include the shittier ones like irritability, screaming at people, etc.

It’s hard to be coherent during a severe panic attack. A bizarre number of characters will stand there going “I can’t breathe” as though they’re vaguely having an allergic reaction. Give me characters apologizing four hundred times in a row. Give me characters who can’t complete a sentence. Give me characters who can’t say anything.

If you have to tell the reader the character is panicking, it’s not a well-written panic attack.

Bystanders almost never react as well in real life as they do in stories.

A lot of people (me included) don’t like to be touched during panic attacks. Every character in stories seems to react well to a hug. Give me characters frantically shoving someone away. Give me characters who can’t manage to tell the other person to get off of them because they can’t get the words out.

The experience of having a panic attack can be exceedingly embarrassing. People will do a lot to hide them.

Stop pretending friendship is the cure for panic attacks. It can certainly help, and having people who are there for you is exceedingly important, but a friend/lover existing doesn’t make a panic attack magically go away.

There are a lot of different symptoms to panic attacks—and I always know when one is coming on unless I wake up in one.

Some signs before the big drop:

Sweating. I sweat excessively. My palms especially turn into slick pools of icky liquid.

I shake like a leaf skittering in the wind. Just. Tremble.

My heart goes double-time.

I get irritable. I snap at people sometimes.

My throat tightens like someone is choking me.

My throughts focus in on the fact that I’m about to panic and I get fidgety. I try to leave and go to someplace where I can be alone. A really common place? A bathroom.

But I still try to lessen the attack. I take preventive measures.

During the anxiety attack:

I breathe. In fact, I breathe too much. I hyperventilate. Sometimes I black out.

Sometimes, I cry. When I do, it’s gross. It’s not pretty in the slightest. I’m panicked, I’m freaking out. It’s not just a few sad tears.

When I don’t cry, I clench up. Just. Ball of fear. I press my hands to my fluttering heart and panic some more.

I think dumb stuff. Heart attack? Kidney stones? Have to escape through a window?

I also try to calm my breathing. I count and list things. It’s not all panic, although that’s a lot of it.

Afterwards:

I’m still a mess. My eyes are red-rimmed. I’m flushed, shaking, sweaty.

Sometimes (often times), I end up having another panic/anxiety attack afterwards. It may take a while, but the stress is still there and it builds up.

I need alone time too.

So here’s so stuff for those writing panic/anxiety attacks! It’s different for everyone, but here are some of my personal experiences.

[hello--james]

From my experiences, my panic attacks are very sudden. It usually takes me, at most, two minutes to enter a full-blown panic attack.

It usually starts off in the area between my lungs and my stomach before moving upwards.

My symptoms include:

Using my hands to clutch at my hair before alternating to cover my ears

Squeezing my eyes shut as quick as possible

If standing up, I sit down or run into a corner to look away from people. If already sitting down, my cover my face by lifting my knees and huddling into a ball

My chest is often compressed/tightened and I find myself making choking sounds

I scream if prompted by others trying to talk to me

I sob and cry like there’s no tomorrow

I GET SORE EASILY — my arms and lower back usually become incredibly sore within ten to twenty seconds from TENSING MY MUSCLES because I always clutch at things like my life depends on it

My panic attacks, depending on severity, usually last from five to ten minutes

Afterwards, I usually refuse to speak to people for the rest of the day

I’m still horribly anxious and sometimes I vomit

Please do your research when writing about panic attacks. They’re so much more overwhelming and destroying than people make them out to be.

As a frequent panic attack “patient” (no idea what to call myself), I find myself feeling horribly embarrassed about every having a panic attack. It eats away at my pride immediately.
