Question by : How do you stop panic attacks once they have begun?

Best answer:

Answer by Dave Carbonell
What makes panic attacks continue is that people naturally become afraid of them and try to protect themselves and avoid more attacks. The more you avoid/protect, the more trouble you’re likely to have. So you need to find ways to work with, rather than against, the symptoms, and gradually ease yourself out of the problem. This is what cognitive behavioral therapy is designed to do. If you want to find a professional therapist who can help you with this, look at the “therapist finder” sections of these two websites:

http://www.abct.org
