Many treatments: I agree with the options my colleagues have listed here. There are also botanical medicines such as passion flower, lemon balm, and kava for anxiety (maybe not full panic attacks). Classical homeopathy and acupuncture are also effective when used by skilled practitioners. Mindfulness-based-stress reduction is can also help you learn to respond, rather than react, to situations & others.
