Yes, you definitely need counseling and meds.

In the meantime, this is what I have found helps me get through attacks.

When you feel an attack coming on, instead of freaking out about it, stop, take a deep breath, and acknowledge the way that you feel. Tell yourself that you are not in real danger, that you have been through this before and survived. Remind yourself that this is just your brain acting up, that it will be over soon, and that you can ride the storm. Focus on breathing deeply and slowly.

I hope this helps.
