My ASPIE son is quite familiar with panic attacks and I got use to dealing with him when he has them. After I lost my other son to suicide I had a very complicated grief, felt into profound depression and had panic attacks in the beginning. There are medications you can take to control your panic attacks. I tried some and found one that worked for me until I didn't have them anymore. My son always refused to take any kind of medication, so we had to use some behavioral training to help him identify what triggers a panic attack, when it is starting and how he can mitigate them, shortening its duration and avoiding worse consequences. Because of him being aspie, I have his support network that is made of very few people, informed about panic attacks and how to deal with him when he is having one. If I was you, I would look for a good psychiatrist that can help you pinpoint the origin of your panic attacks, if they are related to another condition (depression, for example) and look for options to treat the condition. Also, seek your support network, family, friends, spouse, that can help you.
