How can I calm down during a panic attack?

The best way is to breathe and relax yourself as much as you can. Later a self Pep Talk is always the key to do so. Tell yourself that there's nothing to worry about,that you can get through this,that you're the best. This laways helps one calm down. Else listen to some soothing music or talking to your friends and not thinking about the problem always helps.

I know from experience how panic attacks can get but the one thing that has helped me is to breathe and focus on other things like find one thing in the room your end and just find descriptive words for it and just try to refocus your thoughts on positive things :)

Try your best to relax and control your breathing. Put yourself into the most relaxing position possible - like off in a room where it's quiet for example - and see if you can try to make yourself only thing of more calming things.

One of the best tips I've heard to calm down during a panic attack is to make yourself be present in whatever room or place you are. Remind yourself that you could walk out that door, or go touch that wall, or anything else, to remind yourself that you are present in a world outside of your mind.

Breath and think of the calmest place you can and imagine yourself there. Then just open your eyes and try to work the problem out.

There are different grounding techniques you can learn to master in a moment of calm. These resources are better acquired when you're in a state of normality, because they can't be "absorbed" during a panic attack. There are several ways to keep you grounded during an attack: the best way is to carry around with you a little "attack purse" with samples of different fabrics or a little stuff animal. Tact is an important sense to keep you in touch with reality and distracted with a sensory pattern. There are many tricks to overcome the overwhelming feelings building up, but this is one of the best one.

NASAL BREATHING stops hyperventilation/lightheadedness you get breathing through the mouth. You can’t hyperventilate with your mouth closed. The way to do this is by closing each nostril with a finger, and breathing through one, then switching until the panic attack is gone. This is something I believe is not mentioned enough, yet much more effective than most techniques as it allows you to control you’re breathing directly. Reduce the fear by reminding yourself that a panic attack is only excess adrenaline running through your body. Try to sit down, find a quiet or safe space, lean on something solid, and/or tell someone available or that you trust to help if possible.

mindful breathing will help regulate your feelings of panic. deep inhalations and long slow exhalations will help one to become aware of being mindful, in which should help regulate the feelings of panic. Ask yourself where are these feeling coming from. Am I thinking into the future or am I staying present is a good question to ask oneself. Having someone to listen to how you are feeling is important . They may be able to help you reflect on what you are feeling and help you to realize that your panic attack may just be a reaction to what one was thinking.
