Phil: a panicattack doesn't nessecarily equate to a sense of imminent death and any unprescribed drugs or alcohol is NOT the way to treat it!!!
If anyhting alcohol and drugs will make it worse...
A panicattack can vary from being a sense of unease/unrest to full on mini-psychosis so in any case; GO SEE A DOCTOR OF SORTS instead of........you've guessed it.............:
