Every Christmas the Yuletide card portrays a silver star in a navy blue sky and every year the same heavenly object sparkles from the top of the decorated evergreen. At season's end the three wise men and their fellow shepherds gather at a hastily set up manger for the familiar nativity scene.

Panic attacks occur for no apparent or clear reason. Their causes are unknown. They may happen at the most unexpected times and may strike you unexpectedly. They are sudden and spontaneous, and as such might occur when you are under severe stress or when you are quite relaxed and in restful sleep. They might occur due to your being in a situation that you intensely fear facing or experiencing, whether real or anticipated and imaginary. In other words, your phobia (irrational fear) or phobias might trigger them. You may be alone or in the midst of doing some people, you may be doing nothing or something important, when the panic attacks might occur, without any sort of warning. For instance, you might suffer a panic attack while driving or shopping or doing something else like riding in an elevator, without you having even an inkling of what is happening to you.
