Is it possible to have only one panic attack in a lifetime?

I experience my first panic attack yesterday while driving. I didn't know what was happening and thought I was having a heart attack. I pulled in and some people phoned an abulance as I couldn't even move at this stage. Doctors diagnosed a panic attack. Terrifying experience, I hope to never go through it again

    yes they are really scary, the great thing is, that if you have one again, I'm sorry to say you more than likely will, you will know how to deal with it.
    I sometimes find I can't breath and its a horrible feeling, over the years I have learnt to cope with it, I just get someone to yawn for me and this makes me yawn too and then i catch my breath.
    If you know you are having a panic attack again, just try to keep calm and take control.
