Experts share strategies on how to calm down when you're feeling anxious, panicky or stressed out.

Focusing on your breath is the first step to take, says Daun Baker , a licensed psychologist.

Grounding techniques are exercises that can help manage stress stress and pull you out of an anxious state.

Sometimes, simply expressing your feelings can help alleviate anxiety,” says Baker . And depending on the severity of your symptoms, she suggests checking in with a doctor. “Given the physiological symptoms common to both anxiety and panic attacks, it is critical to get evaluated by a health professional to rule out or identify any underlying medical conditions.”.
