I (still) Hate Panic Attacks

For seemingly no reason I have started having panic attacks again. I have been mostly free of the stupid things for close to a year, but in the last week they've become daily. Thankfully they aren't debilitating like some of the attacks I've had over the years, but they are still and extraordinary nuisance.

I haven't had one today, yet, and I hope I don't at all. Yesterday's came from just as an irrational thought as any other. It is weird how my brain just throws me something completely out of left field and I grab on to it so tightly that it takes me over. I think anyone can relate to an oddball thought, but to become so completely engrossed you begin to panic over it is a weird feeling.

I'm a little bit conflicted on what to do. I've done the counseling and know what to do when they come, I've got the medicine to take if I need it, but I really would prefer not to have them at all. Is it time for some fresh counseling sessions? Maybe my other medications need adjusting. I have no clue.

Thankfully the God of all grace has a clue. I'll trust that, for now, He's got me going through this to show me yet another thing. I suppose when it's time to do what needs to be done to stop it things will become more clear.
