I have suffered from panic attacks and anxiety disorder for years. Finally a Psychiatrist who really cared put me on medicine that totally turned my life around. Paxil and Xanax. I don't take as much as I used to, and I urge you to go to a Doctor if you can possibly afford it. There are a world of people out there who claim to have ways to cure the problem, etc. I bought into one of them and it was a mistake. The cause is the lack of some chemical in the brain. Apparently is genetic as all three of my children have the same thing. Please try to get help. Good luck, I'll be thinking about you.

I have had panic attacks for 31 years and once you have them your'e stuck with them. They are caused when your body senses danger and panics, wanting to flee the situation except there is no situation. Your body is swtched on, and cannot turn off now. It senses doom when there is none and the only way to deal with them is with medication until you get use to them like I have. They are a part of you now so start reading up on panic and get some valium, then get on with your life.

Deff. sounds like a panic attack to me. You can't really magically cure panic disorder but you can learn how to manage and learn way to avoid it. Best thing to do while your having a panic attack is to do breathing exercises and drink some chamomile tea. That's what I do. Smelling the tea itself helps me relax. Here is some good information;

Some think it's genetics, as far as what causes them, that's the tricky part. They can come out of nowhere and for no apparent reason. Check with your doctor first to make sure you are having panic attacks and not something else. Also try some sort of therapy. Check the link below, hope it helps.

Panic attacks are episodes of intense fear with unpleasant physical symptoms that usually occur without any outside threat being present.You may be short of breath or breathe rapidly (hyperventilate) and suffer from sweating, dizziness, nausea, numbness, chest pains, or palpitations. Attacks may be linked to anxiety, stress, depression, a phobia (such as fear of flying), or to taking stimulants or drugs, but symptoms can develop for no apparent reason. Although the attacks usually pass quickly, fear of having them can interfere with normal life.
The following steps help to calm yourself quickly and also you cope with future attacks:
1. If you are hyperventilating, try rebreathing into a bag.
2. Try not to avoid situations in which you are prone to attack. For more information you can check the below link
