Today, I was convinced by my friends to watch an episode of the American TV show "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo". They said it was bad, but I didn't anticipate having a full-blown panic attack ten minutes into it. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I stumbled across "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" on TV and realized that these awful freaks are going to make more money than I ever will. FML
Today, I realized that I've watched so much Honey Boo Boo that I've developed a mild southern accent. FML
Today, I realised exactly how bad my social anxiety has gotten when I had a panic attack watching someone ask someone else out on a fictional show. FML
Today, I had an anxiety attack just from thinking about appearing on TV and being watched by a real audience. FML
Today, I met my girlfriend's parents. Remember the show Honey Boo Boo? They seem sophisticated compared to the family of weirdoes I got to meet. It's almost got me reconsidering my planned proposal. FML
Today, I wanted to play Among Us for a little distraction. I ended up having a panic attack. FML
Today, I was playing a game of charades with my in-laws. I had to get them to guess the movie "Chicken Run," so I started flapping my arms, clucking loudly, and running around. I was really getting into it when I noticed everyone looking horrified. Turns out, my mother-in-law is terrified of chicken, and I just about triggered her a panic attack. FML
Today, I decided to put my friend through the ultimate test of maturity: watching an episode of My 600-lb Life. He didn't even go ten minutes before he started making jokes. I didn't go much longer before I started laughing at them. FML
Today, I woke up and went into my living room, only to be greeted by my aunt, sister, and mother watching a very graphic video showing women giving birth. They forced me to stay and watch it until the end. It was almost 90 minutes. FML
Today, I tried to be a responsible adult and went to bed early. I woke up at 3 a.m. and couldn't fall back asleep, so I binge-watched a whole season of a show on Netflix. It was a terrible fucking show as well. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

YDI, "A full blown panic attack", you really need to grow a pair. I agree it's garbage TV as is most "reality shows" but come on, seriously??

Due to the nature of panic and anxiety disorders, I would say with almost certainty that the show did not cause you to panic but rather you just had a panic attack while watching the show. Remember, panic attacks are random and seemingly without reason. I'd caution against making the assumption that Honey Boo Boo caused your panic attack.

Panic attacks almost always have a reason. It's an anxiety disorder, and caused by whatever makes you anxious. I've never had a panic attack for no reason.

Notice I said "seemingly" without reason. Some people aren't aware of why they panic even though there is something that triggers their anxiety. Not everyone is equipped with the capacity for self-awarness to determine the root of their panic attacks.

I agree. OP is a little over sensitive

If he had a panic attack during this imagine what would have happened if it was jersey shore...

I think a panic attack is a bit dramatic.... I know they aren't controllable but I don't really see how a television show could cause a panic attack, especially one that just depicts white trash in action.
