Panic/Anxiety Attacks

Victoria, BC

I had a pretty severe panic/anxiety attack yesterday. Does anyone suspect or know if getting overheated can bring that on?

I know when I get hot, I instantly look for a way to cool off because I know that it can trigger my MS and get very ill. I do not know about bringing on an anxiety attack but I pour iced water on my head or anything else to cool down.
