Or don't you panic at all? If you do, what causes you to panic and what do you do about it?
I am prone to panic when it comes to plans not pushing through. Usually, it would involve money. No matter what I do, I panic when it comes to money (or the insufficiency of funds). That's why now, I always have a back-up plan or alternative, just in case the first plan doesn't push through. How about you? Do you panic? What do you do about it?

i am a panicky person, too. whenever i am no longer that what i am doing is proper, i get my heart pumping real hard that i hear it. that's when i am sure that i am panicking again. i have to get hold of myself by letting my mind have a control of myself. i think it over and over or ask someone's opinion to put me at peace. it is good for you. you know how to make a back up plan.

Oh dear, I think you're prone to panic attacks indeed. I suffered that once before. What I did was take a few deep breaths and then went for a long walk. I hope you get to conquer your anxieties and overcome panic. Thanks for the response!

Well i am not the type which will panic easy,but i have to admit i panic when i get a call phone from my daughter when i am at work and she said something happened...
Was there some "history" and now all time when she call me first my heart beat little hard...
Of course no one know this just me...

I panic sometimes when it involves money such as missing to pay something that I should have paid or when it comes to safety of my children. The worst panic that I had was when I was working in a different city while my daughter was in Cebu with my parents. There was a fire that was about to consume the houses in our neighborhood and got so afraid that they might forget my month old daughter that I just run back forth in the house and run. What was I thinking? I was in Tacloban at that time and my daughter was in Cebu. I felt so helpless that I just cried out of worry and this irrational thought that they might somehow forget my daughter who still can't walk while the house is burning. I really don't want to live through that same experience ever again.

I think I am someone who have forgotten what panic is. I take things rather easy now, especially work pressure. In situations, I find I am more calm than panic. Though I may get nervous, but I don't classify it as panic. Perhaps I will panic only when the question of life commitment comes up. This is something remain untested :P
