Do this also a couple times a day - take ten minutes - inhale slowly using your stomach muscles ...hold for a few seconds...then exhale slowly. Keep doing this until you feel more calm. If it turns out you're having some anxiety and panic issues - learning not to fear them helps a great deal.
@Lynn - thanks for the info on what to do about breathing and muscles; if you can recommend any good resources I can check out to know more about how to work on my breathing and calming down etc in relation to panic issues, that would be much appreciated.
