Speaking to your doctor is a good place to start, they can give you advice and make recommendations for you to speak to someone like a therapist or support groups. Family and friends are good to talk to and ask for support. There are many anxiety and panic attack support forums available online but they are normal people not professionals. Here in 7 cups of tea we have people called listeners who are trained to listen to and support you, they are here if you would like to talk about your situation and will offer you support when you need it.

I have panic attacks almost daily. What really sets me off is getting in an argument with my girlfriend, siblings, or parents. Its hard sometimes to avoid situations that are going to be upsetting but that's what I try to do. Deep breaths help me calm my heart rate and I think about my happy place.

Well there are many options. You might have friends or family that care and if not you can still come on here and talk to a listener. But the one who according to my experience can actually help the most is yourself. You know what works for you and what is good for you and you are the one that has to work through it after all. If you feel like you need profesional help with it you can still try to talk to a therapist or some kind of profesional counselor.

I've found grounding exercises to be helpful. A common one is looking around you, and finding 5 things you see, 4 things you hear, 3 things you can feel, 2 things you smell, and 1 thing you taste! The idea behind this strategy is to be more mindful of your surroundings, and to remind your brain that you are not in any physical danger. Another common grounding exercise is called "box breathing"- where you control your breath by inhaling for a count of 4, and exhale for a count of 6. The idea is to regulate your breathing, since your breathing rate will increase when you're panicking.

It is good to go to a doctor about advice about panic attack. Doctors are specially trained to be able to help with those types of things, such as panic attacks and anxiety. It is also possible to seek advice form a psychological clinic, and see a trained therapist for your problems. Good luck.

There are lots of people who can help you work through panic attacks. You can ask for help from a counselor, doctor, teacher or clergy member who you trust and feel comfortable with. You can talk about it with friends or family who are willing to listen and help. You can join an online or in person support group designed to help people manage panic and anxiety. You can even buy workbooks about the topic that you can work through on your own.

At first yourself. You can learn to understand how, when and why you have panic attacks. Then you can prepare yourself and try to prevent these. It's good when you know what causes your panic attacks. Anyway, family and friends can help you, too. It's important to trust them. Also psychiatrists and therapists.

When I would get anxiety attacks or panic attacks what helped me was I would focus on something completely different. For example I would think about what I was having for lunch or something to take my mind of the panic attack and before I know it its over. Or focusing on breathing is also very helpful.

Often times, you can help yourself through panic attacks. The extent to which we exist independently of a bunch of chemical reactions within our body is the subject of many a metaphysical debate but the important thing to know is that, whilst you may not be able to stop the panic attacks, there are ways of mitigating the effects that the attacks are having on you. Always good to go and chat to a good friend or professional should you consider that you are unable to deal with things yourself.
