Try this: when you begin to feel the panic attack coming on, stop and find a quiet place. Then do this relaxation exercise that is simple and all you have to do is breathe... Sit tall, with your back straight and your shoulders relaxed. Counting slowly, breathe in to a count of 4, filling your belly with air.... hold the breath to a count of 2, then exhale to a count of 6. Do this several times until you feel more relaxed.

Making a list of what you have to do, planning and scheduling the time you need to devote to those things may also help. As you complete the items on your list, cross them off; crossing them off helps you realize that you are doing those things that you need to do. It can give you a sense of calm that things are being taken care of and a sense of pride that you have accomplished work that is important to you!
