Sometimes taking a long deep breath helps to relax and calm me down before I have to do something that is causing me to be anxious. Then, I just focus all my attention on what I have to do, such as giving a presentation, etc. and not focus on how I come across. I find that when I focus less on myself and just on what needs to be done, that takes a lot of the anxiety away.

There is a paradoxical way to hangle them -- you invite them to do their worst--"bring it on". And then you find it doesnt in fact get worse but probably will get better.

Like Robyn555 said, flooding yur anxiety can work, much like making a smoker smoke 2 or 3 packs of cigs at once to make them sick so they won't want anymore.
There are also some other techniques, like gradual exposure - working your way into a situation that causes you anxiety, a little at a time.
Modeling - where someone, a friend or family member, demonststrates for you what causes your anxiety (riding an elevator, for example) and then you do it - perhaps with their encouragement and company. And then eventually, hopefully, alone. You may still have anxiety, but if you are able to do it, the anxiety should lessen the more you are able to make yourself do it, even if it is worse at first.
Another way is to have someone with you to help distract you from acting on your anxiety, and keep you focused on following through with your intention.
All of these things usually require someone to assist you, encourage you, and help you follow through. You could try each one, and see if one works for you better than another.

One...simple...word
XANAX!!

I found that being with a good friend during an attack can help...it lets you know that you have someone on your side that knows and cares about you no matter what anyone else thinks!

Hi Jim, this is JimJim. What sort of attack are you feeling? Racing thoughts.. breathing problem.. bad thoughts... etc. Can you describe yours? Thank you! :)

I cry through them if I'm alone or with a trusted friend. That and the xanax.

I use relaxation techniques one of my therapists taught me. All about the breathing babe

JUST REMEMBER THEY DON'T LAST FOREVER. I JUST HAVE AN "I DON'T CARE ATTITUDE". I AM ALMOST FREE OF PANIC ATTACKS. WHEN YOU FEEL ONE COMING ON JUST THINK SO WHAT, IT WILL END AND I'LL BE FINE!! THE MORE YOU DO THIS THE LESS YOU WORRY ABOUT HAVING ONE, AND THE LESS YOU WORRY ABOUT THEM, THE FEWER YOU WILL HAVE!!!! HOPE IT HELPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Panic attacks always seem much worse at the time than they are--that is why they are such little devils. They never stay at a high level as you fear during one--they come in waves--peak--and go down.

A few things I try ..

I'm on clonazepam, and have ativan at the ready .. should I start to lose it ..

Sometimes, I try to remember, it's just a brain chemical thing .. and it will soon be over ..

Also for me .. going for a walk sometimes helps ..

As well .. when I get a real bad one .. I have my SO give me a big hug ..

Hope some of these are a help to you ..
