If it’s too hard for you to think calming thoughts or to concentrate on relaxation strategies when you’re having a panic attack, find ways to distract yourself from the negative thoughts and feelings. Some people do this by talking to other people when they feel the panic coming on. Others prefer to exercise or work on a detailed project or hobby.  Changing scenery can sometimes be helpful, too, but it’s important not to get into a pattern of avoiding necessary daily tasks. If you notice that you’re regularly avoiding things like driving, going shopping, going to work, or taking public transport, it’s probably time to get some professional help.Put a stop to the thoughts that lead to anxiety, and to replace those thoughts with realistic, rational thoughts.

This is a form of conditioning, meaning that your brain chemistry (neurotransmission) actually changes as a result of your new thinking habits. This is the foundation of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.
