I learned recently that you can actually create your own panic attack. You can do this in several ways. One of the most frequent ways is by anticipating something too much. The old expression “all worked up” probably described someone creating their own panic attack. There are plenty of reasons why someone gets anxious. A lot of times it goes right back to the what-if syndrome. What if something bad happens? What if I lose control? What if no one likes me? The what-ifs can be endless.
The problem gets worse when your body starts to react to all this negative thinking. During a panic attack, blood pressure can rise, you may start sweating and then everything gets confusing.

Panic attacks can cause excessive adrenaline to be produced too. That makes everything escalate. So when you realize you’re worrying about something that might never happen, then you should try to break the process before it becomes a full fledged attack.
