Persisting physical anxiety symptoms?

Earlier this year, I had my first panic attack and got really bad anxiety for a few months. I used some behavior therapy to basically rid myself of the mental issues and feel like I now have a strong mind.

Many physical symptoms of anxiety still linger on though. I will feel nauseous from time to time, twitchy, restless, depersonalized, dizzy and fatigued. I feel like I have defeated my panicky states, but why do these physical sensations still persist?
I do not wish to go on any sort of drug. I’d just like to hear any advice anyone has on this, thanks!

Panic attacks are episodic, which don’t indicate a major problem throughout your brain. The physical symptoms you feel are short-term, caused by a release of adrenaline, which is known to affect heart rate, blood pressure, sweat glands, the typical fight or flight response. Everybody panics during fights, humiliating events, presentations, about anything that threatens us.
Typically, chronic anxiety disorders are associated with persistent physical disturbances, irritability, a general uneasiness and social withdraw, and may indicate biochemical problems throughout the brain. If the symptoms are chronic enough that you can’t life a normal life, provided you are trying everything humanly possible, you need medication.

Try to figure out what is making you have an anxiety attack. If you focus a lot on the attack, you’ll make it worse.
Try thinking about something else. Yes, I know it’s hard. First, take deep breaths, and focus on your breathing. And then, think about something you love doing, and if possible, do it. For instance, I will focus on how much I love singing.
