Stress, Stress and More Stress!

What are panic attacks?  Nothing more then the result of massive amounts of stress in your life!  They are not life threatening, there is not ONE single case of someone dying from a panic attack, so even though it may feel like you’re dying, you’re not.  When you have a lot of emotional stresses in your life, it tends to build up your anxiety levels and if this gets to a certain threshold, you may lose it and have the dreaded panic attack.
