I've been having anxiety attacks lately too :/ It started because of a medication I was taking --which I've been off of for a while, but the anxiety attacks still happen. Maybe what's going on is a result of medication you're taking?
Hmm what I try to do when it happens is remove myself from whatever situation I'm in, maybe go outside and get fresh air. Focusing on my breathing helps a lot. I think it helps calm me down because I'm focusing on only one thing.
I haven't been to see a doctor about it because I don't want medication either. That's what got me into this mess -_- BUT you should follow Wingless' advice: you should talk to someone about it. I know that my anxiety attacks aren't just from the medication anymore and am trying to get into therapy. I think therapy would help, especially since panic attacks do interfere with our lives. I'm sorry you have to go through this. Hope something I said helps you.
