Mine was (I really hope the past tense continues to apply) also triggered by both positive and negative stress - weddings and work disasters prime catalysts - but I think the constant high background level of stress was a mandatory part of it. Used to wake up every morning feeling sick. Don't any more. Haven't had an attack since I out and out quit. I hope she continues to find a way through it - it sucked even more when I had no idea what it was, and was rationalising it, sometimes into nightmarish proportions.
