Serenity, Hun, another secret is to not try to fight it. Recognize it for what it is and just let it come and go. It's an over abundance of adrenaline. As soon as the worst of it is over, try to do something physical to use up the adrenaline. I know it sounds counter productive because of the racing heart, but I found that even that settled down when I exerted myself. If it's during the night, do sit-ups or run in place. Just don't overdo it.

I'm going to find my breathing excercises and post them here. Don't know where I have them since I haven't had to use them for quite a while. Give me a day or two, ok?

You're going to be okay.
