There are a lot of people here. My niece's boyfriend and nephew visiting. I get anxious just around my mom, sister, grandma, and niece. I need to leave the room and go get something to eat and water. I'm starving and I feel weak and malnourished, dehydrated. But I'm having a panic attack. It doesnt help that I haven't showered in weeks and I stink/am dirty. I don't want anyone to see me or talk to anyone. I don't want to be around anyone. I don't know what to do

Go to the bathroom, take deep breathes and drink from the faucet. That's cliche for a reason

I suffer from panic attacks and it's worse with Corona virus outbreak. Xanax helps but it requires prescription and is addictive.

Ok, so I have some suggestions:
Distraction. Anything will do. No matter how much you feel like it, don't allow your breathing to become imbalanced. You can become hypoxic which can trigger more anxiety. Breathe in for 5, and out for 5. Hold onto something solid to ground yourself if necessary. Don't pace. Activity will naturally raise your heart rate, which, again, can trigger more anxiety. If you don't have access to medications, the above methods are taught in what's called "DBT". https://psychcentral.com/lib/an-overview-of-dialectical-behavior-therapy/ Stay strong, and you can get through this! ...

I'd suggest sleeping, but I know all too well that's impossible when having a panic attack.
