How can you stop anxiety attacks?

There isn't an actual cure for anxiety. And "stop worrying about things" is DEFINITELY not the cure for it. But what you can do is make yourself busy with what makes you happy and what makes you feel relaxed. Do what's best for you, don't hang out with people who always make you nervous.

Breathing techniques often help reduce severe anxiety. Although it is not a permanent fix, it can help before you are having a panic attack. Another thing that I would recommend is exercise, it can help regulate your breathing, and help prevent panic attacks.

You can, however learn how to deal with anxiety attacks. You can try and find things that help you when you are having an attack. Things like deep breathing exercises can help. Everyone is different, of course. There is possibly something out there that can help with your attacks.

I don't think there's anyway to stop them entirely. But it helps to avoid stressful situations and use coping techniques when in stressful situations. There are many breathing exercises that may be helpful, as well as other things.

I use grounding and mindfulness techniques because they focus on crisis survival. I do a little excersize of identifying 5 things I see, 4 things I can hear, 3 things I can touch, 2 things I smell and either one the I can taste or a positive affirmation.

Over time, I learned what my triggers are, and how I will typically feel right before an anxiety attack. To talk myself down, I'll have an honest conversation with myself. What am I anxious about? Why am I anxious about it? Do I have a valid reason to be? What is my desired outcome? Other methods I like to use: aromatherapy. I have so many lavender candles, and essential oils that I like to use that help me calm down and feel good. Going for walks and taking a hot bath also helps, and doing something completely separate from my current situation. Pick any activity that you know is going to make you feel good, or that you like to do. Do that for a few minutes or as long as you need to.

I try to think about something else: for me, what is actually working is to watch some stupid television show (and I don't watch general tv at all, so I know it may be sounds strange :D it sounds strange even to me). I've found helpful even reading random stuff like labels or short paragraphs in books, while sipping a hot chamomile tea or vervein tea.

Anxiety attacks can't always be stopped, but it's good to use some way of grounding yourself when you feel one coming. Go to a place you feel safe in, possibly with people you trust, and talk to them or yourself to help settle the situation.

By focusing on your breathing slowly, as well as focusing on what is around you. Focus on: 5 things that you can see, 4 things that you can touch, 3 things that you can hear, 2 things you can smell and one thing you can taste. This is called "grounding" and can help you focus on the reality of what is around you and help calm you down.

Stopping an anxiety attack is different for everyone. Although, one trick I found is to try and close your eyes and recognize at least three different sounds you hear. This trick seems to work especially if you can feel it coming on. Just recognize and label those sounds, and continue if three is not enough.
