I have a neice who has panic attacks...she gets sudden surges of overwhelming fear that that comes without warning and without any obvious reason. It is far more intense than having anxiety or the feeling of being 'stressed out' that most people experience.
One out of every 75 people worldwide will experience a panic attack at one time in their lives. She used the The Linden Method... http://www.anxietypanic.com/lindenmethod.html
The method...is written by an ex-anxiety and panic attack sufferer who understands completely how you feel and knows EXACTLY what to do about it is sympathetic to the things that make an anxiety disorder sufferer feel worse, panicky and constantly full of fear. The method only offers support, understanding and definite solutions.
It doesn't smother you with many, many techniques you can try, some that work and some that don't...IT JUST OFFERS ONE METHOD THAT WORKS!
It is written in simple, easy to understand language, it doesn't require hours of listening to CDs or doing exercises, it offers a comprehensive 'holistic' solution, looking at the whole problem not just a single element, it uses a unique alternative to conventional anxiety reduction 'programs' which take hours of practice, listening to audio and making notes.
I sure hope this, or something like this will be able to help you too. Good luck!

Many people overcome panic disorders and sudden panic attacks on their own. It takes time, but in a sense, they ride out the panic attacks and eventually learn that nothing is going to happen during one. Often, they 'taper off' until they are not noticeable any longer. It is for this reason that some psychologists helping people with panic disorders induce them into an attack, so they can see for themselves that indeed, nothing will happen.
Individuals can also treat themselves during panic attacks by breathing into a paper bag (to decrease effects of hyperventilation), doing diaphragmatic breathing applying ice to the face or massaging the body to help stop the physiological reactions. Panic attacks are completely treatable and can be overcome with the correct combination of medication and therapy.
hope that would help "somehow"...
good luck!

Hi there, I just laugh about my past 3 years of panic now. I was not able to go anywhere without carrying xanax. Fear of having another attack was the most important subject of my days.When i first found joe barry's web site i started to cry because of my happiness.

1st off take slow deep breaths and gain control of your mental faculties. Breathing rhythmically and slowing will help one to calm down. Focus on relaxing. Always know that you are in control and that nothing can hurt you. Help yourself to believe that what you're experiencing can be controlled by you.
Have you not eaten for awhile when these attacks occur? If so it might be hypogycemia......low blood sugar.
