dear Ashley, if your having trouble with your breathing during a panic attack take note of HOW you are breathing. Most people breath fast short breaths from the top of the lung /chest area. You need to slow your breathing ,like mentioned in the post above but also try to make your breath come from your lower part of the lung like the abdomin or tummy area. Try or practice this before a panic attack to see if you can see the difference it is a bigger better breath when from the tummy /lower lung area. Breathing can make or break a panic attack.Take control of the breath and all else will fall into place. As easy as this is said I found a big improvement in my panic attacks after learning some yoga breathing whether from a class of video tape. Hope this helps as it did for me over time.takecare love debbiepxx
