Q: Bad panic attack

I will be 19 weeks on Wednesday and was having a great day. I made a few things like taco meat and chili for the freezer, watched a movie with my daughter, and just had a normal day. This afternoon, I had a horrendous panic attack. I used to get them in college and the last one was like 9 years ago so I know that is what it was. It lasted about 25 minutes and was gone. Does anyone else deal with panic attacks that seem to come out of nowhere?

Thank you Ambience for taking the time to answer and provide some insight. When I went off of my anxiety medicine 8 years ago, I had adopted handling things in the present and not sitting and brooding about them. I had a lot going on back then. If this had happened a year ago, when I had my miscarriage, I would have agreed that the environment I was in was causing stress. I was working at a bank and felt that I was being taken advantage of because I could do every position required on the teller line, but they didn't have to change my pay. I am now a stay at home mom and my husband does very well in his position so we don't worry about money. I am probably less stressed that I have been in years and have adopted yoga as a way to relax over the past few months. I am hoping it was just a one time thing because they are just not pleasant things to go through. I hope that your anxiety and stress levels lessen so you don't have to worry about an attack.
