Play a game on your phone. Try Sporcle.
Listen to a relaxing or enthralling podcast. You could try a soothing progressive relaxation or guided mediation.
Make elaborate lists on your phone: all the concerts you’ve attended, every state you’ve visited, every place you’d like to visit…
Watch ridiculous YouTube videos - light and funny like cute baby animals or something.
Been there. You can do this.

Turn on white noise/constant fan. Order a soft drink and magazines from room service to district yourself.

DP. Sure, and then watch the doctor clutch their pearls and start delivering a lecture about addiction.

Ugh. Now this is going to make me claustrophobic next time I stay in a hotel.
Listen to a podcast in the dark.

First, remind yourself that these are just thoughts, you aren’t in any danger. When I feel panicky, I try to distract myself (which may be hard if you are in the dark and trying to keep quiet) or I try deep breathing. If you have ear buds, Air pods, whatever, you can find a breathing meditation on YouTube.

Take a walk in the hallway. Go outside and get some air.

Every now and again I will feel claustrophobic in hotel room (no open window just a huge glass window and an air controller/fan in room). I can usually work through it and get to sleep but think I’ll be up til 4 am tonight just trying to calm the irrational feeling. No alcohol/premenopausal. I am here 2 more nights. Any tips? I breath and talk myself into calm but would like this odd trigger (3 years now) to go away. Just posting this has helped.
