#panic attack rep

[felixleigh]

High Potential had a great representation of a panic attack in gifted people.

The way Morgan's panic attack starts of very grounded and then slowly lost control. Even the 5 4 3 2 1 trick didn't work if anything it just made things worse and how every time she was interrupted it made things worse even though Keradek was just trying to help. Other peoples calm in a situation that seems life threatening to you (even when its just a math test) and that mind rambling. All the possible things that if this domino falls all the dreams that will never come true.

I've had many panic attacks like that some as "loud" as Morgan's and others almost silent. Unnoticed or outright ignored by others and it was nice to see a panic attack that looked like mine for once.

Something is wrong with Marianne.

It’s not just that her parents have finally split up. Or that life hasn’t been the same since she quit dancing. Or even that her mother has checked herself into the hospital.

She’s losing time. Doing things she would never do. And objects around her seem to break whenever she comes close. Something is after her. And the only one who seems to believe her is the daughter of a local psychic.

But their first attempt at an exorcism calls down the full force of the thing’s rage. It demands Marianne give back what she stole. Whatever is haunting her, it wants everything she has–everything it’s convinced she stole. Marianne must uncover the truth that lies beneath it all before the nightmare can take what it thinks it’s owed, leaving Marianne trapped in the darkness of the other side.
