Panic attacks are real and they’re terrifying.
If your heart races, your chest tightens, you feel dizzy, or your mind starts to spiral you are not alone.

Here are 6 quick things that can help stop a panic attack:

🫁 1. Breathe in 4–6–8
Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 6, exhale for 8. Repeat several times.

🧊 2. Change your temperature
Hold something cold, splash cold water on your face, or take a sip of ice water.

🍬 3. Eat sour candy
Yes, seriously. The sharp taste forces your brain to focus on something real and present, which can interrupt the panic cycle.

👁️ 4. 5–4–3–2–1 grounding
5 things you can see
4 things you can touch
3 things you can hear
2 things you can smell
1 thing you can taste

🚶‍♀️ 5. Move your body
Stand up, stretch, step outside for fresh air — motion helps reset your nervous system.

🎧 6. Distract your brain
Count backwards, recite a song, or name everything in the room that’s a certain color.

💛 Reminder: Panic attacks feel dangerous, but they’re not actually harmful. They usually peak in a few minutes and then pass.

If panic attacks are happening more often, you don’t have to fight through them alone.
Therapy and support can teach long-term strategies and reduce the frequency and intensity over time. We are here to help 🧡

In 1863, right in the middle of the Civil War, President Abraham Lincoln declared Thanksgiving a national holiday. Not for the food or the festivities, but to encourage unity, reflection, and healing during one of the darkest moments in our history.

At Pinnacle Care, we believe that message still matters today.

Thanksgiving isn’t just about a table full of food.
It’s about slowing down, checking in on the people we care about, finding moments of gratitude, and giving ourselves space to heal, no matter what season of life we’re in.

This week, be gentle with yourself.
Reach out to someone who might be struggling.
And remember: healing, hope, and connection are still powerful forces.

🧡 From all of us at Pinnacle Care Behavioral Health, we wish you a safe, peaceful, and meaningful Thanksgiving.

If you’ve been feeling off, tired, or a little more emotional lately…. You’re not alone.
That big drop in barometric pressure (shown in purple) can mess with more than your joints. It can affect your mood, energy, and focus too.
Be gentle with yourself today your mind and body are just reacting to the weather. 💜

In a world that often pressures us to seek validation from others, remember this: your respect for yourself must come first.
Boundaries, self-worth, and self-compassion are not selfish, they’re essential for healthy relationships and mental wellness. 💚

🍎 Healthy Food, Happy Kids! 🥪

At Boys & Girls Clubs of the Red River Valley, we believe no child should go hungry. This year, our Clubs have proudly provided over 150,000 free, nutritious meals to kids through our afterschool programs.

With SNAP benefits currently paused, many local families are feeling the impact. We are helping fill the gap and ensuring every child has the fuel they need to grow, learn, and thrive.

Every day, our Clubs provide more than meals. We offer caring mentors, a safe environment, and opportunities to build Great Futures. 💙

👉 Enrollment is open at all Club locations! Join us in supporting kids and families across the Red River Valley: www.bgcrrvok.org/make-a-donation
