Google search "grounding for anxiety." It will help a lot. It isn't a long term solution, but it will stop the panic attack in the moment.

One method I use to prevent panic attacks is called grounding. It's like when you try to focus on something other than the panic attack. The way I do it is find 5 things I can see, 4 I can touch, and 3 I can hear.

I've been having panic attacks from a young age and one way to prevent them is to always try to be in a comfortable and safe enviornment with at least one person who you know cares about you and knows about your panic attacks. As soon as you feel a panic attack coming on you should try to leave the situation and then reflect on why a panic attack occurred.

Techniques like grounding or square breathing can help. Grounding is looking at the area around you and counting amounts of certain things i.e. 5 yellow things or 3 things you can hear. Square breathing is breathing in for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds and then breathe out for 4 seconds. This can slow the heart rate down to normal.

If you are aware of what brings on your panic attacks then you can work through that with a therapist/CBT/Exposure therapy. If you are unaware of what brings them then I think trying to keep your body and mind in a state of calmness will help. Think about how your mind works, what thoughts are running through your head. Think about your physicality, breathing, tensing muscles. Employ some relaxation techniques.

Remember to always take deep breaths, don't always think of the negatives, when you are feeling like you may have a panic attack, try to focus on something that is still, not moving, or stuck in place. Start to name things about that item that you can see, hear, smell. etc. and often your attacks will lessen.
