Welcome home. I'm Dr. Tama, a minister, licensed psychologist, and sacred artists.

And this is Homecoming, a podcast to facilitate your journey home to yourself.

While I will provide weekly inspiration and mental health tips, this

podcast is not a substitute for therapy. I'm so excited you're on the journey. If you

want to request specific topics or share your progress, email me at homecoming

podcast at gmail.com. Also after you listen, be sure to like, subscribe, and share. Let's begin.

who even before the coronavirus had experienced panic attacks.

So they can happen suddenly and often we have not received a warning that it's

coming. Sometimes you can start to identify some triggers and anticipate or know that certain pieces can be a trigger for you.

But sometimes they can show up without any awareness or any warning.

And a panic attack can last for a few minutes, and for some it can go as long as an hour but with the panic

attack usually it's just for a few minutes and you experience a number of symptoms so you don't have to have all of these symptoms for it to be a panic attack but these are some of the ones that people sometimes

experience.
