The question is are the panic attacks now related to that trauma?
Either way, healing from that trauma is good.
BTW- similar experience for me, too

That's a really good question, I'm not entirely sure the panic attacks are related. Life has been pretty stressful outside of thinking about what happened years ago. I think that it's all just come together at the same time, but it certainly exacerbates it.
With this whole situation, I feel like I need therapy after therapy. You go into this safe space and talk for an hour about the most personal things, then you just get up and leave and are expected to go back into the world and resume life until next time. It's a lot harder than I thought and I have questioned whether cancelling next week's session would be best.
