1. When a Panic Attack Comes Listen to Your
Thoughts

• Take a deep breath and listen to your thoughts.
  Do you like you are going to die? Validate this
  idea. Does it make sense? Is there any evidence
  that you are going to die right now? Remind
  yourself your difficulty to breath, your chest
  pain or back pain and your heart racing is
  caused by the panic attacks and nothing else!
  Write it down on a peace of paper a few times.

• Now, replace this feeling with positive ideas.
  This may seem difficult, but if you challenge
  your anxious ideas and prove them wrong (hey,
  another minute has passed and you're still not
  dying!), they will fade away. Put on the mental
  brakes and ignore the scary thoughts.

2. Practice Relaxation Methods

• You should devote about 20 minutes for relaxation
  exercises every day. At least at first. These
  will reduce the stress that often leads to
  anxiety and panic attacks.
• Go to a quiet room, sit down comfortably and take
  a deep breath. When you exhale, imagine that all
  your fear and anxiety leaves your body along with
  the air from your lungs. You can imagine that
  these thoughts are a swarm of black little
  creatures that you are releasing from your body.

• Next, lie down and beginning with your toes,
  tense and relax each muscle with your eyes
  closed. Tense with inhale, release with exhale.
  These are proven and guaranteed methods for
  relaxation for thousands of years. Allow yourself
  to remain relaxed for 5 more minutes, now you can
  return to your activities. Stop panic attacks
  today!

• When youre not in a state of anxiety or panic,
  make a list of things that scare you. When it's
  done, write down reassuring and calming
  statements that relax you. The exact opposite of
  your fears. When the next panic attack emerges,
  take this list and use it immediately. Fill your
  list with lots of soothing messages.
