      Acknowledgements

      I would like to thank my family – Gary Holley, Atlantis Terry, River Dake-Holley, and Phyre Gonzales for being so patient with me on this journey. I am so grateful for the love and support that you have given me every step of the way, as I learn to cope better with the past. A big thank you also to Brady Neeley, Deb Navarro and Tanvi Chadha for helping me with my recovery. I would also like to thank everyone who has helped me with this book including Shannon Cozby and Shea Hulse.

      Introduction

      As a trauma survivor myself, I started writing this book because I realized that a lot of the advice out there on coping with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (cPTSD) just talks about making lifestyle changes to reduce the frequency of panic attacks, not what to actually do during a panic attack.

      This book is meant to assist other trauma survivors to cope with panic attacks that frequently occur as a part of PTSD and cPTSD. It is my hope that this guide may assist you in learning to cope during a panic attack, so that they won’t be so debilitating.

      Since I am not a mental health provider, I will provide examples from my own experience to illustrate situations that may be common to all of us. Throughout this e-book, I will use examples of triggers meant to be benign to the reader, and most often just refer to a triggering situation vs. the trigger itself. I believe that most people with PTSD, cPTSD and panic attacks resulting from those two disorders experience a panic attack in response to a triggering situation in a fairly similar way.

      In this guide I will refer to taking medications for your condition, as that is what I currently do. However, if medications are not for you, be assured that you will be able to manage your condition without them as well. I was fine on my own using meditation and exercise to cope for as long as 5 years, and other people do it for much longer periods of time. Whether or not medications are right for you is something that you will be able to decide in consultation with your healthcare provider.

      If you already have a formal diagnosis of PTSD or cPTSD, or working with a Mental Health
