I found what works for me, is to take a back seat and take a break whenever I feel a panic attack coming on. sometimes that is needed. Medications can certainly help others, but it's not for me. I don't have panic attacks often, but they can be a burden to me. Stress is a big cause for me, but it's only when I am really overwhelmed and stressed.
