During a panic attack, it's important to remember that you're not alone. These episodes can feel overwhelming, but there are practical steps to manage them.

Firstly, acknowledge what's happening. Recognizing that this is a panic attack can help alleviate some of its power. Breathe deeply and slowly – focus on your breaths in and out. This simple act can regulate your body's response and bring a sense of control.

Next, engage in grounding techniques. Try to name things around you – objects, colors, textures. This practice shifts your focus away from the overwhelming sensations and anchors you to the present moment. Additionally, progressive muscle relaxation can ease physical tension. Start by tensing and then relaxing each muscle group, from your toes up to your head.

Challenge the thoughts racing through your mind. Ask yourself: What evidence supports these thoughts? Are there alternative explanations? Often, panic attacks are fueled by irrational fears, and examining them logically can help diminish their intensity.

Seek a safe space. If possible, move to a quiet and comfortable area. Consider reaching out to someone you trust, whether it's a friend, family member, or therapist. Expressing what you're going through can provide immense relief and support.

Remember, managing panic attacks is a process. It involves learning what works best for you. Professional guidance can be incredibly beneficial in developing coping strategies tailored to your individual needs.

Lastly, be kind to yourself. You're enduring something challenging, and it's okay to take time to recover. Self-care activities like gentle exercise, mindfulness practices, or engaging in hobbies can aid in restoring a sense of balance and calm.

Panic attacks are daunting, but by implementing these techniques and seeking support, you can navigate through them and work towards building resilience in managing future episodes. You've got this.

Nagging harm the parent-child relationship because it's negative!
If you give verbal statements twice, it's called
reminding.
But if you say the statement, let's say three or four times, let me tell you that's "Nagging"!
Parents nag for many reasons and are more likely to do so when feeling overwhelmed. While offering a quick fix at the moment, badgering our kids does
nothing to stop the problem from recurring.
Moreover,it comes at a high cost:
*damaging the parent-child relationship,
*making kids feel incompetent, and
*decreasing the likelihood of them becoming
confident, capable adults.
Trust me, nagging is not at all an effective strategy.
And decreases the likelihood of getting the behavior.
If the child does not do what you ask, request less of the behavior, and then go help the child carries that out, at least in the beginning. When you get a little portion
of the behavior, praise that. Gradually, you could increase the amount of the behavior you get and all without nagging.
Parents can increase extrinsic
motivation by offering age-appropriate rewards.
When moms and dads nag excessively, their children
feel defeated. They figure that they can't do anything right so they might as well stop trying.
Usually repeated prompts will not get the behavior and make the behavior less likely.

Holidays being the most food-centric time of the year can be a slippery slope when it comes to someone with an eating disorder.

I present to you, style no 4 out of 4. The authoritarian parenting style.
These parents usually use a “tough love” kind of style. They believe that they are entirely responsible for the outcomes of their children and hence they would try really hard to manipulate and control every behavior or movement of the child because they don't want anyone else blaming them for the bad behavior of their child.

I present to you, style no 3 out of 4. The neglectful parenting style. Here the parent may be going through problems of their own where they find it difficult to cope. Hence making it difficult to pay attention to the needs of the child. As the name suggests the parent tends to avoid the necessities of the child making them feel unloved or unwanted. Children of neglectful parents often show signs of childhood trauma.

I present to you, style no 2 out of 4. The authoritative parenting style. Here the parent is focused on the child's well-being. Even though they may need to show tough love at times they balance it out with warmth as well.

https://mymindgains.wordpress.com/2022/12/14/what-is-a-permissive-parenting-style/

I present to you, style now 1 out of 4. The permissive parenting style. Here the parent is completely focused on seeing the child happy vs what is actually good for them. Sometimes the tough love is necessary but this type of parent would definitely avoid any kind of conflict in order to be liked by the child.
This can stem from a place where the child's needs did not match that of the parents. The parent may have hated their parents when they were children. Hence, now they put their full attempt to be liked by their children.
