Everything you have explained here is what I need. I am 19 years old and have been suffering from anxiety for about 5 years. It has controlled my life, i mean i couldnt even go to my H.S. Graduation b/c of that. I'm to the point where i worry if im going to have another attack, and i can't take it anymore. So im researching about this and your idea's seem great, i already do the listening to soft music which does help. But my attacks happen mostly around someone and if i control it without having one ever again it would change my life!
Thank you for the tips
