Hi Alan, I am sorry you experienced this panic attack today. Hopefully it will be a one off and you get any more but you are in the right place to get support. Keep taking deep breaths in and holding it for the count of 5 then letting it out VERY slowly. This should help you to calm yourself down :hugs:
