My anxiety has to do with accomplishing tasks, being with lots of people in public place (grocery stores, malls), feeling overwhelmed by life in general, and failing at whatever new thing I might try.

It creeps up on me when I am sitting quietly at home, not doing anything. Instead of getting up and doing something, I feel horrible with the physical symptoms and try in vain to slow down my breathing.

My goal is to become active in spite of the symptoms and try to distract myself until they pass. Sometimes the feeling lasts 20 minutes, sometimes hours. It's much, much better than it used to be, an all-day affair.
