Everything will be ok.
Please just keep saying that as it's true.

You are not having a breakdown, most likely it's a panic attack so please breathe in with your mouth closed and breathe out for twice as long with you mouth open.

This will all calm your physical panic.
So breathe and say ‘everything will be ok'. Just keep repeating until your parents arrive.

You will be ok. xxx

They just left their house. They needed to pack all their medications.
It'll be an hour before they get here.

Try to stay calm pants46.  As Dangermouse says, try taking deep breaths to calm yourself and try to distract yourself until your parents get there. They will be with you soon.  You will be ok.....just hang on in there.  We are all here for you.

Sending much love.

Pants. Concentrate on breathing. Think about what you can touch, hear and see. You are safe. You're not dying. Nothing bad is going to happen. This will pass.

Keep talking to us they will soon be there xxxx

Pants. Sit down in a chair. Try to breathe in for 7 out for 10.  What can you feel under your hands?  Can you feel the chair? You are safe.
