The solution is a lot simpler than you think. Its actually so simple you're not going to believe it. When you feel anxiety coming on, or if you are actually in a full blown attack you have to tell yourself YOU ENJOY IT. You have to tell yourself it is a good feeling. Picture yourself when you were skiing or on a rollercoaster, or something that caused adrenaline excitement. It is the exact same feeling but you are interpreting it as a bad thing which causes the panic attack. I know it sounds crazy but it works and if you can do this you will never have another panic attack again. The last one I had was 15 years ago and I actually came up with this during an attack and it stopped immediately and that is the last one I've ever had. Since then if I start feeling anxious I just tell myself bring it on, this will be fun, picture myself on a rollercoaster and its goes away as fast as it came.
