The Panic Attack Song

Everyone has their own ways of coping with anxiety and panic attacks, but for me, it can be very helpful to listen to a calm, comforting song. So, I decided to write my own song to do this! I talked with a few friends who have experienced panic attacks in their own unique ways, and wrote lyrics that can hopefully resonate with and help other people too 🙂


The Panic Attack Song

Close your eyes and try to breathe… in… and out

I am here and I will not leave you

You feel so alone in the world, well guess what? So do I

So rest your head on my shoulder and let yourself cry

Sometimes they don’t know what to say to make the world stop spinning so fast

But I promise if you can just make it out of here, the pain, it doesn’t last

I’m not here to tell you that it will all be perfect someday

But I hope that you know that I’m rooting for you, and I believe you’ll be okay

Just because no one around you has noticed the pain that you’re in

That doesn’t mean they don’t care about you, it just means they’re not noticing


I… I’m here for you

You can come back again and again

And I’ll always be here to help you get through


Breathe… breathe in and out

It’s okay to be hurting, no you’re not annoying

Just let this song be your hideout


Sometimes our thoughts, they tell us these lies that suffocate

But I promise that when the world looks at you, it doesn’t see what you, yourself, hate

You may think that nobody likes you or feel like nobody cares

But remember I’ve written this song for you, to mend your pain and despairs

If the feelings you’re feeling are starting to feel like too much to take

It’s okay to put them away for a bit and let a little time dull the ache

Please remember that if you need anything at all

There are people around you who love you, just a text away or a call


And I… I’m here for you

You can come back again and again

And I’ll always be here to help you get through


Breathe… breathe in and out

It’s okay to be hurting, no you’re not annoying

Just let this song be your hideout


Close your eyes and

Try to breathe… in… and out

I am here… I am here for you
