ELI5: What is the logic behind that "five things you see, four things you hear, etc." exercise?
Asking because it's never done anything for me. I've been in the middle of a panic attack and...still been able to see, hear and feel. I can rattle off 20 things I see, hear, feel, smell, and taste without thinking. I feel my feet on the floor and the itchy hair curling into my ear and the hangnail I was picking and my breath catching in my throat, so on and so forth. What is the exercise actually supposed to be doing?
