Specializes in Psychiatry

Panic in the car.: Breath in slowly & deeply through your nostrils. Fill your lungs with air (but not to the point of discomfort). Hold for a count of five then slowly begin to exhale through an open mouth. Repeat at least 12 times, longer if you need to. Wonder if you have motion sickness with hyperventilation that transitions into panic. Get checked. Take care.
