I too can relate to what you are experiencing. Sad with me tho, for two years, I was going through these attacks, and the counselor I was seeing, never identified it as panic. It wasn't until I saw another T, that PTSD and panic, etc was named.

Aroma therapy is one thing that helped me a lot. Certain aromas are soothing and calming to me.. The aroma of lemons work for me.. I’d put a few drops of lemon juice on a piece of cloth, and carry it with me, and when I’d start feeling uneasy I’d just pull out the cloth and sniff…(I even sometimes carried a lemon in my purse, for security).. lol...I’ve been know to grab the lemon pledge and wax everything in sight.. My house would smell of lemons..

Another thing is diaphragm breathing exercises. Or I think it is called belly breathing. You do these exercises everyday. It takes practice, and is very helpful.. I will see if I can find the exercises online that I used. It has been a while since I’ve used them..
