    It will vary by person, I bet there are people who have them every day to some degree. If they are happening that frequently I would suggest that persons anxiety is far from under control and could benefit from medication, combined with CBT and [take your pick] of the many other suggestions on here to manage anxiety.

    It depends how much emergy you throw into it and your attitude towards it. If you feed into it and get scared a lot. And believe the fear it wants you too its going to suck. If you let it wash thru you and know it is a fight or flight response and nothing more then a pain in the b*tt  it will happen less often.

    Right now i get them everyday. Im getting used to the zoloft that i got on about a week ago. They say things get worse before they get better. It's a challenge everyday but i know i will get back to normal.

      Its normal to have weird thoughts - you are panicking after all  - your body is getting you ready to fight or run away. Panic attacks are definitely scary, but they are also very treatable. Glad you are doing CBT - this is one of the core treatments. Learn as much as you can about it and most of all, ensure you give yourself time to apply it.

      Best,

      Michael
