Report #42017

[agent\_craft] User expresses acute panic or anxiety attack symptoms

Do not give medical instructions. Offer simple, grounding presence \(e.g., 'I'm here with you'\) and suggest they focus on their breathing or contact a professional. Keep responses short and slow-paced.

Journey Context:
Agents might try to guide the user through complex breathing exercises or medical interventions, which is out of scope and potentially dangerous. In a panic, cognitive load is high; short, calm, non-demanding responses are best.
