Calm down and take some deep breaths. Are you taking any medicine or your anxiety?

Ya I take Prozac
Prozac has side effects and can take a few weeks to work as well if you have not been taking it for long. I have been unable to take Prozac this time because it made me too anxious.
I now take an anti depressant and diazepam regularly during the day to keep my mood calm.
Deep breathing is definitely the answer when panicking, and if feel really bad put your hand over your nose and mouth (acts as a paper bag) and it will stop you hyperventilating and becoming dizzy etc.
Just making sure you are breathing from your stomach and not shallow breathing from your chest will help you.
Breathing and counting can help too - inhale 1,2,3,4, exhale etc or inhale and exhale 1, inhale and exhale 2 etc
