Diet can have a huge effect on the way you are feeling.

If you have days that seem worse for no apparent reason take a look at what you ate the day before.

When I am stressed I find wheat upsets me, I get really livery and nauseous. And dairy definitely used to make me feel anxious and trigger a panic attack if I was feeling fragile. I can feel palpitations very soon after eating anything with dairy in it, let alone plain cheese, yoghurt or milk on its own, so check ingredients lists too.

To celebrate the launch of my book Life Without Panic Attacks, two years ago, I created a free anxiety course.

Since then my course has helped many thousands of sufferers worldwide overcome anxiety and panic attacks in a matter of days using the technique I used which does not require any courage whatsoever. I'm the biggest wimp going, so if I can do it, anyone can.

A video on your iPod or iPad is a great way to snap yourself out of spiralling anxiety or panic. You just have to remember to watch it when you first start feeling a bit wobbly although it also works great if you are deep inside though often that's not the time you remember what to do so easily. A specially made video, just for you, reminds you who you are, where you have come from and what to do when you're feeling anxious or panicky.

People who suffer from anxiety and panic attacks almost always breath shallowly, even when you tell them to take a deep breath you always find they do it from their chest. This not only gives the feeling of not getting enough air so you breath even quicker but also results in the characteristic tightness of the chest and heart area which can be so frightening.

Chest pain and anxiety is very scary and, presuming you have checked with your doctor to rule out a physical cause, can easily be stopped using deep abdominal breathing.

"Life Without Panic Attacks is so clear and encouraging - and will be of immense help to lots of people.

I think it is particularly good how you outline all the different aspects that might need to be addressed. People who suffer from panics will definitely recognise that you know what you are talking about from your own experience. I will certainly recommend it to my clients."

Looking back, when my panic attacks started I was going through some very stressful changes in my life although at the time nothing out of the ordinary seemed to be happening and the attacks just seemed to be getting in the way of my normal living.

I would have given anything to take a pill to stop my heart palpitating and the more anxious I got about experiencing panic attacks the more frequently they occurred.

EFT is incredibly effective for fears, phobias, addictions, relationship problems, and anxiety of all kinds.

Tap before a dentist’s appointment or asking your boss for a raise, when the kids are driving you to distraction, to calm yourself before speaking in public, before asking the bank manager for a loan, in fact any situation that raises your pulse rate. When we are calm we make better decisions!

Even so the panic attack symptoms were very convincing on many occasions and it was a real struggle to combat the effects of the drugs with positive thoughts and gentle activities to distract myself.
