Answers: What are ways to stop hyperventilation, control it.
Basically, focus on something else...your concentration on the hyperventilating itself makes the condition worse. YOu have to maintain your composure and take your mind somewhere else-get someone to talk to you, sit in a quiet place and look at pictures, take a break and get something cool to drink.
FYI: A paper bag serves no "medical" purpose in a hyperventilatory attack-it simply shifts your focus and helps to regulate your breathing!
Breathe into a paper bag.
find the cause -get some counseling.
