Today I share with you 10 ways to stop a panic attack & the nerdy science behind why they work. I start by answering the questions: What is a panic attack? Why do they happen? And what can I do about it?

Here's a list of the 10 tools:

  1. Color spotting
  2. Near far jumps
  3. Sour candy
  4. Strong smell
  5. Hold an ice cube
  6. What can I hear that's the closest? What sound is farthest away?
  7. Coping statement / Panic poem
  8. Cold water on face
  9. Ear tugs
  10. Hug a safe human
