Helps a lot

I do feel this works to help me feel "centered". It's a non-meds form of relaxation that I have in my toolbox for when things get tough.

has helped to calm down

Very key technique while suffering panic attacks

works great

my friends mother who is a nurse who also suffers from panic attacks taught me. it's very effective.

have a hard time doing this without feeling like i'm going to hyperventilate.

it is relaxing...breathe in to the count of four through your nose ( breathe deeply) and then out slowly to the count of five through your mouth. do this about 5 times in a row...don't rush it....then relax...don't move for a couple of minutes

anxiey,stress and anger all causes shallow breathing and raises blood pressure. deep breathing helps stop the chain reaction.

Taking time to pace breaths helps.

it calms me down and helps gather thoughts

I do breathing exercises and meditation to quiet panic and manage pain.

helps slow the heart rate
