Panic Attacks

I have heard that panic attacks are quite common and i have had two so far this week. Does anyone have any tips for dealing with them.

Is this post-op or pre-op? The dealing is the same for either though, have someone supportive talk you through it, remind yourself that you DID indeed do your homework, that you are making the right choice for your life. And after, when you're having the "OMG what did I do to myself" attacks, remind yourself of the same things, that the liquid diet will pass, that the mushy diet will end... especially important when you're trying to walk off the gas... it's really uncomfortable and makes you feel worse than the incisions!
