I have been getting OM since I was 19 years old. I am now 30 and just had one today. I have found that it is most helpful to, of possible, go into a pitch dark room and wait it out. Or I have sort of blindfold that keeps out the light. It deemphasizes the flashing lights. Or keep some sort of cloth headband that can be pulled over your eyes. I have found this to be really helpful. I also suffer from panic disorder and keeping myself calm during these times is a must.
