Is it normal to have panic attacks out of the blue without any triggers?

Yes. I have had a number of years living with panic attacks, and with me, they rarely have any triggers. In time, I have just come to notice the early signs of a beginning of a panic attack and learned how to cope with them as they come.

Yes and no. Maybe there is a trigger you aren't noticing or havent realized is a trigger. Try and think about your panic attacks and see if thereis anything linking them. I thought my panic attacks were random but after therapy I noticed that there was just a trigger that i didnt notice.

That's totally normal! Panic attacks can happen anytime. But when they do happen just breathe in and out

I have them often seemingly out of the blue. I am told it can be quite normal, even if there are triggers present sometimes they can't be noticed until you reflect on the situation afterwards and lets face it, who really wants to go back to the situation and dwell on it. After I have survived a panic attack I just want to move forward. Sometimes as hard as I try to avoid anything that might trigger a panic attack it will still happen.

Sometimes, panic attacks do come and go seemingly without any triggers whatsoever. Sometimes, we don't know what triggers us, since it could be the smallest things. It is also important to realize that sometimes we can trigger ourselves, as well. Seek some expert advice on finding out why you're having panic attacks so suddenly, as these can be hard to prevent and control.
