Ditto on hormones!

I never thought of panic and anxiety attacks as being separate. My doctor groups them together.

One thing that stops my panic attacks is having a prescription for Ativan handy. I don't have to take it. I just know it is there. It calms me knowing that if by chance my body goes crazy and I think I am dying, all I have to do is swallow a little pill, and within minutes, I am fine, with no side effects. If you are lucky enough to find something that works for you, I assure you that you will not suffer so much. It's very difficult to describe what you feel in the middle of a panic/anxiety attack unless you have been there. Once you experience an attack, you will never laugh at those who are victims of this terrible disabling "problem!"
