Dahila and Two One nailed it on the head..... Just some additional thoughts.
Anxiety and Panic is a reaction, so when it sense something it goes into the fight or flight.....
Well when you run, your body starts to sweat, your heart rate increase, adrenaline starts to flow and the blood flow increase, Guess what? Exactly what a panic attack and the start of anxiety feels like. The body may be misinterpreting the signals. So all you need to do is tell the body otherwise.
Exactly like the 2 above, stated, you need to tell the body its a pleasurable experience and something to enjoy. The body is "misunderstanding" things......
Ease back on the running and slowly increase the heart rate, there is no reason to go from a standing heart rate to a athletic heart rate, you dont need to keep up with your partner, slowly increase everything, day by day it will get easier!
