Essentially I had a massive resurgence in my panic attacks about a month and a half ago, and I've been slowly getting better since then, however something I'm struggling with immensely is trying to treat the anxious situations through how I've been taught. To just sit through the anxiety till it lessens;

However I've found that when I try and do this the anxiety actually drops down a bit, then massively ramps up again a short while later, in this very up and down loop until it reaches the point where the anxiety is unbearable and I have to step away from the situation.

Has anyone got any advice for dealing with this, because I'm honestly a bit lost. Should I be doing the exposure for shorter periods of time, or trying just to sit through the building anxiety despite it continually getting worse?
