i've suffered from panic attacks for a while now - mostly situational. I went on a holiday about a month ago and went a whole 2 weeks without any panic attack and my anxiety levels were low! i'm now back home and i'm back to square one, but it's actually worse. The panic atacks have no trigger and i generally think i'm going crazy! i was just sat watching television with my family and ran out of the room into the garden because i couldn't breathe, i felt sick and i thought i was losing it! i'm only 17, and will hopefully be wanting to go to university next year, how can i even think about that with this to deal with! Has anybody any idea what kind of therapy i should consider? I can;t deal with this it frightens me so much!
