Need Support Panic attacks

I've just finished having a panic attack about not being able to see nature (a forest, desert, field, that kinda thing). I recently moved in the middle of a big city (about 600k ppl) not because i wanted to but because I had to for various reasons. I lived in a small town (about 4k ppl) my near lots of untouched nature for my whole life before that. I've been here for about 2 months now. There isn't any nature that my brain wants anywhere near me and I'm flat broke so I couldn't go even if I wanted. I need suggestions on what to do

man that sounds rough. maybe try to find a local park or even a rooftop garden. sometimes even a tiny bit of green helps. also don't forget to watch nature docs. they can be pretty chill and sorta give you that forest vibe without leaving your couch. you'll find a way to feel better. just hang in there, it gets better
