Thanks Josh, made me feel better.

So the other dog is OK? He looked to be in bad shape.

Serious question ... How does one react during a panic attack? What are the common symptoms? What causes it? What stops it (non drug)? Etc......
Never had a PA but have received numerous calls for help from an alcoholic friend who has them often when he is not drinking. He states that they are serious enough to be suicidal.
When I show up I drag him out of wherever he is and make him walk/run until it passes. Is that one of the temp cures?
Thanks .....

that ws awesome!

Smart move. I suffered PAs for years. Whats happening on a biological level during the crisis is a fight/flight response that over adrenalizes the body. Helping your friend work out that chemical through walking will help them overcome the acute phase. There is a mental portion that needs to be addressed for long term relief plus a serious look at the current diet. It took a change of lifestyle for me tht inlcuded regular weight training, diet and letting go of some mental demons. Ironically, the only real remaining issue from that time is terrible claustrophobia. Never had it as a child. That's life.

That's messed up on so many levels.

I agree

Chaos, Che, I gotta say that I PARTIALLY agree with youz guys. But I've also met lots of people who would go out of their way to help another human being in a heartbeat.
And then I've also seen or read about others who definitely fit your description.
Doom! Thanks for that PA information. My PA friend was a single dad with two 8 to 10 year old kids (troublemakers) plus he was an alcoholic and smoked continually. I sort of took some responsibility for overseeing his kids and that gradually led to more responsibilities which I didn't anticipate and was not trained to accept .... so I ended up going to AA with him and trying to work with his anxiety and PA problems.
AA was a kick in the ass because I'm not a serious drinker (two beers and I fall asleep) and I used to take him to the AA meetings in Hollywood and met many of the major Hollywood movie stars during those meetings. Probably the only place where they can be regular Joes without being bothered for autographs.
He was in and out of AA for most of his life and was frequently found outside of the Circle Bar in Venice with his face down in the gutter.
A very interesting story which is more than likely inappropriate for this space, so I'll just end it by saying "Thanks" for the response about PA.
Stunt
Sorry, Dis!

meh the panic attack was just a forewarning of stomach flu which i am now enjoying

-
Strange! I just had that same flu but also one advantage .... NO PA.
Get well, Dis!

Eh, those ones are few and far between and they end to be the ones you hang onto as friends.

Sadly absolutefy noone in the so called "scientific community" has any fucking clue about panic attacks. Zero. They will babble for days without saying anything.
Listen to this BS that explains nothing basically
" According to the American Psychological Association, the symptoms of a panic attack commonly last approximately thirty minutes. However, panic attacks can be as short as 15 seconds, while sometimes panic attacks may form a cyclic series of episodes, lasting for an extended period, sometimes hours. Often those afflicted will experience significant anticipatory anxiety and limited symptom attacks in between attacks, in situations where attacks have previously occurred. "
However, I do know. Cause I am a "missunderstood genius" :D
Panic attacks are past life trauma stored and carryed in your DNA or "cellular memory". Sometimes, something you see, hear or experience can trigger those DNA sequences to open and the traumatic memories and all emotional trauma associated with those experiences come in bulk to the surface in the conscious mind. And you a experience seriously overwhelming feelings all of a sudden.
It is a way to "release the past" although not pleasant AT ALL for those who been through it.

That's brilliant! Made me well up all misty. :'( Someone pass me an AI.

if you were the dog lying on the road, the hero dog would have reached you, gave you a sniff, took a piss on you, then left you.

Another true story which really impressed me about dogs ......
I had two dogs. One was a very small black Labrador (Hot Pants) and the second was a Benji type dog (Thumper). Both were rescued from the SPCA on the same afternoon.
Hot Pants was named after a wrestling friend by the name of Don Moraco
Pants and Thumper became very close friends and they were always together.
But Pants used to love to follow the kids to school which was about two blocks away along a very busy highway .... Kalanianiole Hwy.
So one weekday morning I was lying in bed and Thumper comes running into my room and starts 'digging' at my chest. I notice he's in a very excited condition so I hop out of bed, get dressed and head on off to see what the problem is.
He heads running off down the highway and I'm right behind him and can see Hot Pants lying on the side of the road a short distance away. Thumper runs to him and lays down beside him as if to keep him warm never taking his eyes off of me as I come running to them.
Hot Pants is one hell of a mess with blood all over him so I pick him up and start running back home to get my car. By the time I get to the car, Thumper is already sitting inside waiting for us. And I hop in with Hot Pants and head off down the highway for the animal hospital which is less than a mile away.
We get inside and the doc looks at Hot Pants and tells me that he's pretty banged up and looks like he had been dragged along the highway by a car.
"Do you really want me to try to save him?"
I take a look at Thumper who seems to know what's happening. Is he encouraging me to tell the doc to do what he can do?
So I say, "Yes!" and we leave Hot Pants in the doc's care.
Five days later we get a call to come and pick Hot Pants up. He's all bandaged up but ready to come home.
So I get the keys and go to the car and there's Thumper all ready to go.
We pick up Hot Pants and he looks like an Egyptian mummy all bandaged up. Thumper simply licks his nose to say, "Welcome back!" and we head on back home.
Took a good long while but Hot Pants eventually recovered and still followed those kids to school but a bit further from the traffic this time. I'd often get a call from the principal asking me if I could come and pick up Hot Pants and his little buddy -Thumper because the kids had a hard time studying whenever Thumper and Hot Pants were waiting for them in the school yard.
Dogs are amazing critters.
