The Big Bounce rip What is the best way to get rid of a panic attack?

A Night at the Roxbury ipod

Method move Systematically learn to desensitize yourself to the stimulus that creates the panic. In other words, if you are fearful of dogs, systematically learn to become accustomed to looking at pictures of dogs, then move toward being ok at looking at a real dog from a safe vantage point. Then move toward looking at dog from a safe distance, etc etc.

To help you with this desensitization, learn to relax and calm yourself with deep breathing, and other relaxation techniques .

    The very first thing you should do is concentrate on your breathing. It's important that you take slow, deep breaths from your TUMMY because that triggers a calming response. DO NOT take deep breaths from your chest. Chest breathing triggers the "fight or flight" response that will make you more panicky and you could also hyperventillate.

    Then, as someone mentioned, try to desensitize yourself to whatever it is that is giving you the panic attack. Consult a Dr. about this.

    Good luck!
