    The best immediate advice I can give is to spend a few hours reading the various threads in this section.

    You will find instances of people having thousands of these episodes every day, some thoughts of what causes them and some remedies. Being anxious is the number one reason for lots of these episodes so breathing deeply, being calm are right up there.

    So grab a non caffeinated non alcoholic drink (water is good!) and have a read. Then why not call back in and tell us if anything you have read might help?
