Anxiety and panic attacks

2020-10-24 16:17:09
I lost my dad last October and since the time October has arrived again, I am having constant anxiety and panic episodes. My hands get ice cold, chest feels heavy, the heartbeat starts racing and feel breathless. Is it all because of the trauma and anxiety? Please elaborate.
