My teenage daughter has panic attacks very often. What helps panic attacks fast?

We can treat panic attacks with medications to help alleviate it, and then continue therapy. Hope that helps.
“Fast” would be breathing rapidly into a brown bag. Properly means either short term use of diazepams or longer term use of SSRIs or another proper meds. Treatment by a psychiatrist is still the best.
-Meditation
-Breathing deeply into a paper bag
-Understanding the cause of the fear
