Hi I am having anxiety from few months, I am under consultation with a psychiatrist. But since last two weeks I am having frequent panic attacks I don't know whether to call it panic attack but I have a sudden fear, increased heart beat and breathing becomes heavy for few minutes and this is happening mostly during nights. I will be travelling tonight. So what do I do if I have this again. My doctor told me chew lonazep in case of emergency and I have few other medicines like frisium. So can anyone suggest what should I do in such severe cases where I can not get any help.

Tips for Panic attack Look around you for? 5 things you can see 4 things you can touch 3 things you can hear 2 things you can smell 1 thing you can taste This is called 'grounding'. It can help when you feel like you have lost control of your surroundings and/or your head.? Meditate for 10mins daily so that frequency of attacks would be less Start mindful breathing. Close my eyes and think of a safe place (mine is the beach). Vividly think of all five senses being activated in the safe place (the view of the beach, the sound of the waves, the feel of the water and sand, the smell�and the taste of the salty air as I breathe). Tell myself I am safe. Nothing can harm me. Relax my body gradually until I can open my eyes
