As a sufferer from time to time of both disorders, I have learned that seeking the root cause is akin to seeking the Holy Grail: If you seek a single object, you are not likely going to find it.

The causes of anxiety and panic attacks are nearly infinite, unique to each individual, and often a combination of physical, environmental, and emotional factors pinging off each other.
