Beauty Broken,

Panic attacks do suck! First tip is to see a medical doctor, to rule out any physical conditions, which are often mistaken for panic disorder. Even if you aren't insured, find a way to get it done ASAP!

Next, fight the panic. Don't give in to every instinct in your body rushing to get the heck out of whatever situation you're in. If you give in, the panic grows stronger and stronger still.

Once you've gotten okays from a med doc, that the panic is purely psychological, remind yourself of that 50 times a day (or more!) to get you through. It isn't easy, but it absolutely can be done! Just don't give in to the instinct. Fight the fear.

Best wishes to you!
