How can I breathe easier while having panic attack?

Focus on breathing. Deep breaths. Or even imagining the breath going all the way through your body. From your mouth to your toes. Try and tighten your muscles and then relax them as best as you can.

Relaxing and breathing methods should help. Take slow deep breaths in and then exhale forcefully, pushing all the air out of your lungs, while exhaling, drop your shoulders, relax your arms and shake them out. Relaxing music also helps

inhale (through nose).. 2.. 3.. 4.. exhale (through mouth).. 2.. 3.. 4.. 5.. 6.. and repeat until you feel better. You may notice your heart rate and body temperature slightly decrease as well, which hopefully makes you feel more at ease

Find a yoga position you find comfortable to do some deep breathing; I personally like child's pose but I know a lot of people who like corpse pose. slowly work, to a sitting position while doing your deep breathing, to a standing position,

One way is to make space for your lungs to expand and for your diaphragm to move. You can either stretch out, lay down flat or sit up straight. Try to breathe deeply in through your nose, out through your mouth. Each for 4 counts occasionally holding your breath for one count in between. If that doesn't help, use a paper bag. This is something an ambulance would provide for you if called to you. The paper bag (or plastic if you don't have a paper one, but be careful) helps you be aware of your breathing. Each time try to completely fill the bag but be careful not to make yourself dizzy.

Focus on what makes you happy,think about it and forget everything around you,then focus on your breathing, breath in and out till it's controlled

Think about something that makes you happy, a moment in your life in which you felt overflowing joy. Remember that moment, remember the place, the people. How you felt, how it sounded, even how it smelled. Slow your breathing and just think about that moment.

I know that using calm breathing can help to make it breathe easier when having a panic attack. Basically what it is is breathing from the diaphragm. Take a slow breath in through the nose, breathing into your lower belly for about 4 seconds, Hold your breath for 1 or 2 seconds, Exhale slowly through the mouth for about 4 seconds, Wait a few seconds before taking another breath. That is what I do to end up breathing better during a panick attack. Another way that I know has been found useful is to try to distract yourself because when you are distracted it can help you to breathe easier because you are focusing on something else instead of panicking

I would try the concept of grounding. List a 5 things around you that are a certain color, then list 4 things around you that you can touch, etc... Making your brain aware of your surroundings can help slow your breathing. Counting also really helps the brain slow down during a panic attack, which may help your breathing slow and make it easier to breathe. Otherwise, perhaps you could look up breathing techniques, which may help making breathing easier as well! Sitting up, not slouching can make inhaling easier, too. You can always hop on a chat with a 7 cups listener when you have these feelings. They are here to help connect with you during moments like these.
