I was recently contacted by a writer who's working on a piece about panic attacks for a national magazine aimed at women. As the email to me puts it:
My editors have asked me to include quotes from real women describing what their panic attacks feel like...The editors and I would like to incorporate the experiences of women to demonstrate that panic attacks feel different for every individual and to reassure readers that they're not alone.
If you're interested being a part of this piece, you can contact the writer at ellewriter@gmail.com. So you know what you're getting into, here's what'll be asked of you:
I'm just looking for a few sentences or a couple paragraphs describing one particular panic attack that stands out in her mind; what it felt like, where she was at the time, who she was with, how she attempted to get through it, if she sought medical attention and how long it took to pass...Should women choose to share their experiences, my editors have asked that they provide a first name, age, occupation and city/state. No last name required. But I do need a real first name.
(Sorry I wasn't able to post this sooner, Lauren!)
