“How can I handle a panic attack if I have one?”

There is no ‘best way’ to handle panic attacks. Your best approach depends on you, the situation at the time, how you feel and so on. However, generally, for long-term benefit, the best way to handle a panic attack is to stay in the situation until it subsides.

7:11 breathing and the AWARE technique is a great way to help yourself handle panic attacks well.
