I avoid caffeine as it tends to give me a rapid heartbeat and triggers anxiety. I am very sensitive to caffeine though and have been since the age of 19. Caffeine is a stimulant so it would make sense that it could trigger a panic attack.

Hope this helps

I avoid caffeine too because it's one of the biggest enemies of a panic attack sufferer. It triggers anxiety and gives you a one bad damn fast heart beat that makes you feel horrible and sad. You should try eating fruits and I can suggest you to drink camomile tea. I hope this helps.
