Panic attacks are not a mental disorder. But pharma wants you to believe they are. So they can keep you sedated and dependent for years. Panic is simply a sign your nervous system is stuck in fight or flight. Learn to calm your nervous system. Don’t numb it.

Vagal Toning: using sensations like vibration or sound frequencies to indirectly activate the vagus nerve. Takes a large amount of time for a mild noticeable effect, if any. Better suited for Highly Sensitive Persons (HSPs) living with chronic illness as the impact will be more
