For the past several years I have struggled with getting (and staying) fit. Ok I admit it, the struggle has been longer than just a few years. As a kid, instead of playing nicely with the girls, I fought with the neighborhood boys. I attempted to join their fun and received new scars weekly in bloody games of soccer. I was always the last one picked to play on the kickball team and, as the catcher of my 5th grade softball team, I pummeled the pitcher in the head with a fast ball. Uncoordinated in team sports, I succeeded only at baton twirling which was fun but I barely broke a sweat. After failures in group sports I thought I'd try running so, a few years ago I attempted to train for a half marathon. I ended up limping home in tears and thought I’d never exercise again. (I couldn't even MOVE after that, much less exercise!)

Panic attacks occur for no apparent or clear reason. Their causes are unknown. They may happen at the most unexpected times and may strike you unexpectedly. They are sudden and spontaneous, and as such might occur when you are under severe stress or when you are quite relaxed and in restful sleep. They might occur due to your being in a situation that you intensely fear facing or experiencing, whether real or anticipated and imaginary. In other words, your phobia (irrational fear) or phobias might trigger them. You may be alone or in the midst of doing some people, you may be doing nothing or something important, when the panic attacks might occur, without any sort of warning. For instance, you might suffer a panic attack while driving or shopping or doing something else like riding in an elevator, without you having even an inkling of what is happening to you.
