Yes, it does help because then you'd be able to spot the warning signs and help to stop or curb the problem before it gets out of control.

yes because it may seem like it's more manageable but it all depends on what your triggers are sometimes people can't even think about them because it's so bad

Definitely. It's the most helpful to not only identify them, but train yourself to go through thinking about why they're triggers, what caused them, how you're reacting to them, and if there are better ways to perceive or react to them. Ways to deal with rethinking triggers can be found in a bunch of the self-help guides, so if you haven't, you might want to give the one most relevant to your problems a look-through. Even if you don't write out the exercises, thinking through them and keeping them at the back of your head can help you cope.

Yes, if you know what's going to trigger you, you can avoid it, or at least be aware that it's going to happen.

It really does. It helps because you know how to prevent yourself from being triggered. For me, I know I have high anxiety when my room is messy, so if I make sure it is clean I won't have a 'freak out' later in the week.

In most cases, yes, although identifying them may lead to you excessively trying to avoid them, which can inconvenience you in the end.

In my experience, yes. Identifying your triggers can make it much easier to live with panic and anxiety disorders. Avoiding panic attacks becomes much easier when you know *what* to avoid. :) "Knowing is half the battle".
