How to Survive a Panic Attack
Panic attacks can be intimidating, especially the moment you realize you have them, and it gets worse before it gets better. The good news is that the panic attack will go away. You just have to wait for the next few minutes.
Here’s a video to help you with that. Distracting yourself is a classic coping mechanism for good reason: Breathing and focusing on objects around you can reduce the fear you experience as you wait for the attack to end. This video will help you learn these techniques, and if you are having a panic attack right now, that is a distraction too.
However, it is not a substitute for proper mental health care. While a one-off panic attack is possible for no particular reason, panic attacks are often part of an anxiety disorder or other mental condition. Seek mental health care from a therapist or your doctor if your seizures continue or if you are concerned.
