Heck yeah, panic attacks su*k. I can recall having some when having to deal with my ex. Cold sweats, racing heartbeat, etc. Was more like PTSD than just panic attacks.
Something to consider - look at how they treat PTSD for some ideas how to handle them. But for me it came down to the source and dealing with that
