Could my daily coffee habit be triggering panic attacks?

I've been a coffee lover for years, but recently I've noticed that after drinking my usual cup or two, I get hit with intense feelings of anxiety and panic. Has anyone else experienced this? Could there be a link between caffeine and panic attacks? #PanicAttack #Anxiety #Coffee

It's possible that caffeine could be contributing to your panic attacks. Some people are more sensitive to the effects of caffeine, which can cause symptoms similar to anxiety or a panic attack. You might consider gradually reducing your caffeine intake to see if it helps. #CopingStrategies #StressManagement

I've heard of this happening to others too. Caffeine is a stimulant, and it can increase heart rate and make you feel jittery, which might trigger a panic attack in some people. It's worth experimenting with decaf or herbal teas to see how your body reacts. #MentalHealthAwareness

Keep in mind that everyone's body is different, and what triggers panic attacks in one person might not affect someone else. If you're concerned about your panic attacks, it's always a good idea to speak with a healthcare professional for personalized advice. #AnxietySupport
