What do you do during a panic attack?

[High Plains Drifter]

Keep calm and buy doge

[divokozaa]

Well.. In that moments you have to calm down somehow, you have to think about how you are panicking for 'no reason'... or you smoke some weed, yeah.. 😁

[divokozaa]

Keep calm and buy doge

hahaha I agree! 😃 or you can buy 5 dogs and never have panic attack again 😅

[Hobsie]

I want to run without looking back

[carltoncole]

I am asking for more, since it only has control over you if you fear it. It may be so hard, but it works and it goes away

[vina.lugtu]

First try to avoid panicking, it makes the situation worsts you cannot think properly. But I take a deep breath.. As much as possible stay calm and pray.
Think the right thing to do..

[J.Werner]

Breath deeply, try to control my heart rate, if at home try taking a hot shower, analyze and rationalize where it's coming from.

I have never experienced an anxiety attack but when I am stressed or feel nervous/anxious, I take 4 very deep and long breaths. I then try to calm my mind and think about something that makes me genuinely happy.

The fact is that you need to know first what your problem is and why you have panic attacks. You probably need to start by trying to solve those problems and remove the source that radiates a panic.

Been there man, it's tough.  Like most are saying, just breath, you'll eventually get through it, and that's what you need to keep telling yourself, that it'll eventually be over.  It sounds like rubbish, but, when it's happening, to know that it will eventually end sometimes brings me relief.  Good luck!

I used to have a few short heartache from last month and had a serious panic attack I never had in my life.
It felt like I'm having a heart attack. I'm about to collapse, faint. I poured down some water on my head. Took long breaths, tried to sleep but the panic didn't stopped. It came for about an hour where are ran frantically from here and there taking long breaths.
I don't have anything to be depressed about but just had such attack first time in my life.
It was scary and the only feeling I got was I don't want to die.
Do anybody have the similar attacks? What should I do if I had it next time?

The important is you know what to do if you experience it again, ask your Dr. for first aid or you need to do if it happen again and be relax and calm your self to thinks carefully what you need to do to survive. Bacuase when you panic it will throw all your ideas and knowledge how to survive.

For me, I just close my eyes and breathe slowly and pray. Try to refocus yourself and think of positive thoughts. Being with some you trust will also help especially if they know that you sometimes get panic attacks.

My workmate died heart attack on his home couple of years ago (Our restaurant chief)

Like you i never was depressed and i was happy in general. i've had 3 very strong panic attacks through a ten year period. The last one which was the worst one, i can't even express with words how it felt.I even had several minor panic attacks days after.That week was awful.
It made me stop whatever i was doing at the time in my life, i went back to my homeplace and went through a period of refocus, balance and reevaluation of goals and life in general. Panic attacks are a strong message from you that something is very off.
It is a weird feeling when you do this and look back, it is like you just woke up and suddenly understand why your body reacted like this. I take it as a good thing, it means that in the back of your head you have an idea of what you want and where you want to be, but in the everyday life you go astray. Panic attacks, if you take the message, will get you back on your way.
'Its been a while since you posted, i hope you are good. But for longevity, food, exercise, meditation is what i found to be the solution. Every one of this has a huge impact in my life.

[Melissa Smile]

Fortunately I don't have often panic attacks, but when it happens, I use deep breathing and switch attention and concentrate on positive things, like nature or kittens 

[eann014]

When you are under panic attack maybe you need to call a friend that is not under panic, so he/she can help you keep calm and talk about what is your problem. Having a friend in your side is also good.

[Notmyfault7]

I would easy up and find way out to get rid of this kinda situation.

The first thing you need to do is to say no to all extra negativity in life you don't need. Don't go to forums filled with negative people and their horror stories. Life a normal life and seek help from  professionals who know what they are talking about. I don't necessarily mean a psychiatrist which may be constly but there is a lot of really good literature out there
