What treatment are you currently on? Do you have a therapist or psychiatrist?
For the panic attacks, agitation, and racing thoughts take a very low dose of melitonin (.5 or 1 mg)
Take up to 10 mg of melitonin to sleep
Set up systems to ovoid situations that are overly agitating. Ask here for help.
Take tim
Join a gym, karate, or boxing basiclly anything that you can hit things or run out your energy.
Write, write, write like crazy
Drink through a straw, it has the same calming effect as smoking
Take a really hot shower or bath to reduce stress
Have sex or use toys until you pass out (use protection)
Pour your self into a hobby
Get a therapist
If you have one use there suggestions. Ask them if it's time to call the psychiatrist
If you only have a psychiatrist and your appointment isn't soon then call
If you don't and want to try meds call and make an appointment
If your in crisis go to the ER
