Hey Pachyderm, I'm a little late in responding to your
question, I apologize to you buddy. Most of what we know
usually comes by experience or secondhand info or a site
such as this peticular one. Being frightened about a condition such as, Panic attacks and anxiousness are very
real conditions that may come by way of internalizing some event that you really need to deal with. Sometimes just
being quiet and still (meditative) can serve to open you
to what you are truly feeling in a given moment. These
are revelations that help define our lives and give us the
hope and insight to work every day to reach our collective
mental health. Take care
