This is why all gps and specialists will recommend some form of particular physical activity or ather activities that make you feel good, to assist towards recovery.
In the form of anxiety and panic disorders, sever anxiety including OCD, cognitive behavioural therapy can be quite effective, which is about changing the thought processes when experiencing an anxious episode. Anxiety inc OCD is your cognitive function, logical thinking, being taken over by the emotion and fight or flight function of the amydgala of the brain. This is exacerbated by your body producing high amounts of addrenalin to cope with the anxious moment. Some people find deep breathing works, however, in many cases this actually prevents as much air getting to the brain, which then exacebates it again.
Coping mechanisms and distractions are most effective, and obviously being well informed.

goodluck guys.
