Suggest Treatment For Depression And Panic Attack

Last night I suffered what I would classify as a major panic attack. I have suffered with clinical depression for years but this was totally out of the blue and totally different than anything I've experienced. The doctors have been changing my medications constantly, trying to find something that would work properly - the last change being adding amitriptyline (25 mg.) just a week ago and discontinuing Viibryd and Quitiapine. Today, I've still been showing symptoms of panic. Any suggestions.
