Self Medication for Anxiety

I've been experience panic attacks in the last week. Symptoms included shortness of breath, insomnia and even short spouts of "vertigo" when going down stairs. It has happened to me before, and I used mild sedatives - Valerian, Passionflowers and other herbs. However, this time it isn't helping me at all. Can you suggest an alternative medication? Do you have some advice about self medicating for panic attacks?
