Yes, landing the plane for paramedics is the best way. and LondonJ did the 100% correct thing. What I tried to say about "breathing in a bag" is just a quick relief the symptom before landing a plane.
Why am I so sure about it's "highly likely" a panic attack - I had this experience. Simple. There had been a number of episodes before I sought medical help. The one I could remember was in the subway, I got panic attack that my mind was filled with my "worries" (family issues to solve at that moment). During that attack, I started to "realise" there "were" so many people around me on the train.
This episode lasted for ~15 mins and went away very quickly (really within 1-2 seconds). Then I feel very tired and hungry. As a paramedic, I guess you know why.
After it, I got depersonalisation and derealisation. So, I decided to see a psychiatrist.
Can I get Class 1 or 2 Medical after recovery?!!
