    About The Fosters:
    “The Fosters” is a compelling, one-hour drama about a multi-ethnic family mix of adopted and biological teenaged kids being raised by two moms. Stef Adams Foster, a dedicated police officer, and her wife, Lena Adams Foster, a school vice principal, have built a close-knit, loving family with Stef’s biological son from a previous marriage, Brandon; their adopted twins, Mariana and Jesus; and newly adopted siblings, Jude, and his half-sister, Callie. As the third season of “The Fosters” continues, former foster teen Callie is now officially adopted into the Adams Foster family. She must put aside any romantic feelings for Brandon and does so by throwing herself into her “Fost and Found” website, even drawing the interest of an investor. After his performance at Disney Hall, Brandon focuses his energy on his music, working with Mat on a musical for their senior project. Mariana’s relationship with Mat is still estranged, so she turns her attention toward running for junior class president. Jesus makes a friend who is into street racing and, at his prompting, questions Ana about his biological father. When Mike discovers a secret that his foster son AJ is keeping, he is torn about what to do with the information. Jude must face the fact that his boyfriend has decided to move away while a serious medical issue for Stef results in a clash of opinions between her wife, Lena, and her mother, Sharon. Winner of a Television Academy Honors Award and GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Drama Series.

    Teri is just fantastic. I can`t believe how underrated she still is after 32 years of career. Her acting skills and range are WAY better than those of many actresses who play the same role over and over again, and don`t even know how to give intensity and depth to a character, but despite that, they are stars. Is so unfair. When Stef stopped breathing, so did I. Teri is by far, in my top 5 of favorite actresses since 1990. It makes me sad that she does not have the recognition she deserves.

    Teri is fantastic, I was blown away by her performance in this episode. She always kills it but this scene right here is award worthy. As someone who's best friend suffers from panic attacks this resonated with me and made me hold my breath along with Stef. I wish they'd focus more on Stef and not so much on the teen drama with the kids, Teri deserves more screen time.

    Yeah this happens, you can't breath, can't talk, can't think, can't move, you are just frozen and paralyzed. It's extreme stress and things that have you under their control. It's never easy to break. People aren't supposed to undergo that kinda thing just because they don't fit in this so called, "NORMAL" society.

      I don’t think I’ve ever been so triggered by a scene before, but I could literally feel everything in this scene. Even the sound of people talking feels like jabs to the stomach and makes the air feel heavier. People don’t realize an anxiety attack causes your brain to feel like it’s losing all oxygen and causes your body to go into a state of shock. It’s called an attack for a reason. It has both mental and physical effects. I’ve had anxiety attacks followed by a horrible headache and body aches, and the need to take a long nap in which I wake up too all groggy. This scene deserves an award

    Obviously Teri’s acting was just crazy good. The most soothing part to me about the was the mother daughter relationship. No matter how old your baby gets, they are still your kid. Steph is never vulnerable and to see her need her mother to catch her... made me just ooze with love.

    ive had two extreme anxiety attacks in front of my mother, which left me unable to breathe and move, and i was a crumpled mess on the floor. both times she called it a "meltdown" she never realized i thought the world was going to end. she never realized i couldnt breathe. she never realized me cursing and punching the wall was not my choice. i just wish my mother could understand. i just wish my mother would understand when i was "huffing" at the principal's i was trying to breathe, i wasn't being disrespectful. and ive told her, ive told her these things. but she never understands. i just wish my mother would care.

    As someone who experienced panic attack. Lucky for her it happened with her mother who knows how to deal with it.
    Which is not always the case. Because usually there are times when the attack occured while your in public and people doesn't know what's wrong or how to help me. So I always run away somewhere open instead as they wouldn't understand anyway.

    During panic and anxiety attacks, the only thing that helps me is to force myself NOT to breath when hyperventilation kicks in. As soon as I feel my breath get faster and my head get dizzy, I force myself not to breathe. The panic or anxiety are still there, and I might go through a few rounds of hyperventilation, but at least the dizziness is controlled
