I had my first panic attack last week.  I have always heard about what it might feel like but I had no idea it could just come out of no where like that.  I almost passed out twice and I thought my heart might beat out of my chest.  I legit thought I was having a heart attack.  I couldn't stop shaking afterward either because I got so freaked out. Being a new grad I have so much stress to make it in the world with finding a job... its becoming a little too much.  I love pilates but with corona and being poor (lol post college life) it will be hard for me to get into classes again.  Doing it at home isn't the same and I don't have enough motivation.  I have also tried therapy which helped for a while but then I even had anxiety and stress about going there too.  Meditation can help sometimes but I struggle with turning my brain off.  It feels like I am always thinking about something which is good sometimes, and bad other times. Someone suggested taking anxiety medication but I have always kind of been against medications- I prefer trying the natural way but now that I had the panic attack, I am second guessing the meds route.  Any and all advice welcome.  Just a precursor for everyone-I know that half are going to say its okay to take meds and the other half may not feel the same..but remember that we can all have our own opinions and that's ok.  Thank you in advanced.
