      I was 15 the first time i had a panic attack. I had just come home from an amusement parks and was severely sun-burned. I felt like I was having a heart attack..I couldnt breathe and I had my mom take me to the hospital...they told me it was a panic attack...then there was more and more panic...and it all just snowballed...6 yrs later I'm dealing with the same stuff.
