I had a panic attack today and I want to know what to do?

Question:

I really need some advice about panic and anxiety attack. I was in a college class today during an exam and I all of a sudden had a hard time breathing right, heart was pounding and I had to excuse myself from the class. I have had this happen on numerous occasions but I am really tired of it... Help!?

Answers:
There are medications that can help. The college health center probably also has a mental health clinic attached to it. You can usually see a therapist free of charge.

When a panic attack occurs, focus on your breathing. Breathe slowly, and deeply. Say soothing things to yourself. (difficult in the middle of class, but you can at least think soothing thoughts.)

Good luck.

If you drink coffee or caffiene drinks, cut back. They cause alot of anxiety in people.
