hi! i was on business trip abroad in small town where almost noone speaks english. from the moment i landed in the airport i had thoughts that if i will get sick here, noone will be able to treat me well and there are no flights back home within few days so i have no chance to escape from this city. by the evening i had a temperature and i felt that i become more and more anxious. i was there with my clients and the worse thing happened when we had dinner together. we were waiting for our food when i felt i can not anymore control my anxious thoughts. i started feeling dizzy and hot flashes, heart beated so fast. usually when my panick attacks happen i run to the nearest hospital because i only feel safe there and i really can not stop myself from doing this. but can you imagine i do it in front of my clients?? i didn't want to scare them or make them think i'm crazy at all. i was so afraid to loose control and cry or do anything crazy in front of these people and that made me panick even worse. when our food was served i couldn't even look at it but by some lucky way i forced myself to start eating. i was so surprized that once i started to eat my appetite just come and in a few minutes i felt my panick goes away. i ate so much that evening) and i really started to come back to normal mind immediately after i started to eat. may be that's the cure??)) it worked on me!! (my last panick attack happend when i was on medications and i din't have any since i'm free of meds (for 3 months). and it was first time i managed it without running to hospital!!
just to share - may be that will help you.
