anxiety and panic attacks go hand in hand.
a panic attack is like an anxiety blowout.
treatment for either should be about the same.
everyone experiences anxiety in their life.  The reasons for it and your ability to cope with it are what differs.  
Anxiety can frequently  be a symptom of somehting else.
Seek help for it and you can better manage it.

In my experience, anxiety can definitely become a cycle like that.  When I first experienced panic, I was constantly anxious about having another one, and I would, then I would return to be anxious about another one and it would continue.  To get out of it, I sought counseling which enabled me to learn about and confront the anxiety.
