Do an online search for local support
groups that specialize in panic attacks.
This can help you see what others do to
deal with their problem, and it provides
you with a chance to vent to others who
you can trust to understand.

CONTROL YOUR BREATHING
You can ease the symptoms of
a panic attack by taking note of your
rapid breathing during an attack and
figuring out how to slow it down.
Make sure you control your breathing
because this will help make the attack
end sooner. To gain control while you
are having an attack, take deep breaths.
When you have a panic attack you can stop,
sit down, and start breathing. Use a deep
breathing technique wherein you breathe
slowly in through the nose, allowing
your stomach to rise, and out through
the mouth. Count to five for both the
inhalation and the exhalation. Try this ten
times, and you should feel much better.
Practicing deep breathing techniques
when you feel the beginning of a panic
attack will relax your muscles and make
you calmer. Having already learned
relaxation techniques, such as yoga or
meditation, will help you get through a
panic attack more easily, not only that, but
it can lessen the effects in the future.
