Hello,

I must say, Panic attacks can happen at any age...

I have been getting them since I was 5...

Exposure to disturbing behavior, yelling, abusive surroundings ect, can contribute to

early Panic disorder..It is also to do with genetics as well, so dont forget about that...

I am not saying something DID happen to the 13 yr old or (you)...

But Panic attacks can be a product of Post traumatic stress...

An event that changed the mental state of the person...

Food additives can also be a trigger for a panic attack- even nicotine, drinking, and

street drugs like cocaine...

It is hard to answer your question without knowing your health history ect...

Just know a panic attack cannot hurt you, it is a normal response to all of the things going on in and around you..."fight or flight response"...

I know the sheer terror of the feelings that come with a panic attack, it is so

sad, I know for such a young person coping with panic...

Being only 13, I think something is bothering that individual and some good cognitive behavior therapy would help...Make an appt with someone...
