It's not really so possible to control panic attacks as they come, as much as living a less stressed lifestyle as a whole. Sure, that might sound more like a bunch of useless advice. But its just like a person that just cannot lose weight no matter what they do, meanwhile other folks are pounding hot dogs and milkshakes with a tiny frame. The person with an ultra sensitive nervous system has to make very delicate tweaks in their overall life. You just have to reckon with how you manage stress. I for one cant be moving around changing jobs on a whim etc because I need the stability.
And then theres hormones - sugar and caffeine and fat in the diet igniting hormones that work against you.
I cant go on because this shit goes forever.
