Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- The lightheaded, tingly, floaty, this-isn’t-real feeling is the one that scares me most
- The instant the room starts to spin or tilt I’m convinced I’m about to faint or collapse
- I’ve built up all these little rituals to get through it
- Part of why the racing heart and the dizziness terrify me is that I genuinely don’t know they can’t hurt me
- Now I’m scared of the feelings themselves
Practices that may help

The Dive Reflex, Made Practical - Interoceptive Exposure for Panic
Interoceptive exposure deliberately induces the bodily sensations of panic — racing heart, dizziness, breathlessness — in a safe setting so the brain learns those sensations are not dangerous. It is a well-supported component of panic disorder treatment, with randomized-trial evidence showing significant reductions in panic frequency and avoidance. - Use somatic tracking instead of distraction
Observe sensations with neutral curiosity rather than distracting from them — the curiosity interrupts the threat appraisal.
