Axiety attacks?

Question

When you feel an aaxiety attack coming on, what can you do to stop it?

Answer 1

I used to suffer from anxiety attacks for many months. When I felt one coming on I would tell myself that I would be alright and I would breathe deeply in through my nose and out through my mouth. It your self conscious about that or you are in a car sing to the radio at the top of your lungs - it helps you to regain breathing control. As long as you realize that it's an anxiety attack you will get through it.
