I discuss handling a panic attack the right way. They are scary and and very overwhelming. If you ride the wave of panic and resist the urge to run away or call up a loved one, then you have already began inner change. If you can start facing your fears head on, then you can start rewiring your brain. It is about proving to your subconscious that the environment you are in is safe and not dangerous, thus activating the rational mind in us rather than the irrational mind.
