Please let me know if this is not the place to post this.  
This weekend recent events in the world and in my life triggered something in me and this weekend I went through it bad.

On Saturday I woke up like normal, and I was going through social media and generally scrolling on my phone and something just triggered me. My heart rate shot up, I felt this huge sinking feeling, I was constantly on edge, and I was just fearful of things that I really shouldn't have been.   
I was to a point paralysed by it, I slept nearly all day because it was the only time I was really at peace/not worried about random stuff.  
Since, I have deleted most social media, Twitter/Facebook/Instagram, all which I can't really control the content (I feel like I have some control on Reddit with the subreddits that I follow only contain topics that I enjoy). 

I called my friend up and I talked about it which really helped, in the moment, but I have still had small spikes here and there over the rest of the weekend! 

Main thing is that I now feel a bit lost and get these random flairs, does anyone have any advice on how to get on top of it at all?
