Hi Melanie,
You are not alone. I have suffered panic attacks for well over 10 years now. It has got better for me. I have learned to cope. I am still anxious but I have found changing my attitude and the way I think helps. I have slowed down. I have made some changes in my life style and things are a lot better for me now. It will get better for you. Check out the remedies on this wonderful site( thanks Nic). Something here will help you.
Best wishes
Ken
