Chaos erupted at my niece's birthday party - screaming toddlers, a collapsed cake, and my sister's frantic texts about missing balloons. That metallic taste of panic flooded my mouth as my vision tunneled. In the cramped bathroom, back against cold tiles, I fumbled for my phone. Not for social media, but for that blue lotus icon I'd ignored for weeks: Spiritual Me Masters. My trembling thumb hit "Emergency Calm" just as my Apple Watch alerted me to a 140bpm heart rate.
