Has anyone ever had a calm panic attack? I know it sounds like a paradox, but its kind of like getting more of a mind high, if that makes sense. Like my nerves are having more of an effect on my body than my mind. Im getting the same symptoms i always do (mainly tight chest, a little shaky, cold sweats) but my brain isnt really freaking out. Anybody know what im talking about?

Yes, this. Didnt know if there was a word for it, i looked up calm panic attack and nothing came up, just tips on how to calm down.
yes! sometimes I get something like a calm panic attack. my heart speeds up, I start to feel hot and a lite sweaty. I get anxious and sometimes start to cry, but my brain is still aware of everything and I'm not uncontrollable. my friend taught me to regain myself by using senses to ground myself. touch something, smell something, see something, hear something in the room, and taste something. it really helps. even if you can't do all at least do as many as you can do at the time
