If you are feeling like you might start to hyperventilate, I have a suggestion.

Sit up straight and close your eyes. Now picture a slice of pecan pie with a big dollop of whipped cream on top. This is the important part, breath four slow deep breaths keeping the pecan pie in view. Open your eyes.

You should feel better, and perhaps hungry for some pie. Now, where's the scotch?
