You have to work at it but I think cognitive training would probably help you overcome your panic attacks best. Try and join a group or read the book by sam obitz which is generally easy to read and identify with and teaches you the right and wrong way to use a tea form. I learned the tea form exercise in my group and it has become a staple in my life that helps me keep my anxiety at a minimum and I have not had a panic attack since the begining of my group and I was having them almost everyday when I joined my group. Once you learn to counter your thoughts in the tea form you will begin to make a lot of progress faster than you thought possible :d

While it won't solve all of your problems, this article might be of help to you:

I have panick attacks too.. The worst thing you can do for panick attacks is to run away from them. Even tho they are scary, you need to go to places where they happen and just feel through them. Keep riding them out... The more you run, the more things you will avoid.

I started off not driving from them.. and then i got to the point that i didnt go out much at all. I have to fight to go out.. but the more i do it the easier it gets. The only thing is that is if i get sick and have to stay in for a week or two... i backslide and have to fight the attacks again really bad to get back where i was in being able to go out. (this time its been a month.. and im still working on it)

Also, hypnosis has been helping me. It has helped me relax and helped my panic alot.

Ohhh, do u exercise. I have heard that exercise can help with depression along with your medicine..*shrug*
