Are panic attacks a treatable problem?

I have had about 5 panic attacks since Christmas. The first one I had was when I was on holiday and we had walked far out to look at some coral and the tide starting coming in, I also had one after I had to leave the cinema because the film I was seeing was freaking me out to much, but recently there have been less obvious reasons, I had one of Duke of Ed last weekend and was sent home, and have now had to drop out as I’m scared it will happen again. Is there any treatment and is it worth talking to my doc about it?
