Hi Mag,
I've worried about the same thing! Panic attacks are awful...it would be nice to have a few moments peace and just lead a "normal" life. I think I'm getting closer to that, but I can't even go on vacation without worrying I'll loose my mind. I don't think it's too much to ask to be able to enjoy a vacation.
My grandfather always said that if you're worried about loosing your mind, you have nothing to worry about. (Because people who are crazy don't know that there is anything wrong with them.) It's kind of funny if you think about it, being afraid of loosing your mind is actually reasurring because you know you AREN'T really loosing it. Of course that's a very rational approach, and it's almost impossible to be rational during a panic attack.
