"Emma Stone has spoken about her history of panic attacks. The Amazing Spider-Man actress struggled with anxiety from the age of eight, and told Vogue that pursuing acting as a teenager helped her to overcome the attacks.   &amp;quot;I was just kind of immobilised by it,&amp;quot; Stone explained. &amp;quot;I didn&amp;#039;t want to go to my friends&amp;#039; houses or hang out with anybody, and nobody really understood. &amp;quot;[Being on stage] gave me a sense of purpose. I wanted to make people laugh. &amp;quot;Comedy was my sport. It taught me how to roll with the punches. Failure is the exact same as success when it comes to comedy because it just keeps coming. It never stops.&amp;quot;  Stone went on to admit that she still experiences panic attacks at times, and turned to baking in order to cope during the filming of The Amazing Spider-Man. &amp;quot;I think I felt really out of control of my surroundings,&amp;quot; she mused. &amp;quot;I was just baking all the time. It seemed like it made me feel, if I put these in, I&amp;#039;ll know what the outcome is.&amp;quot;   Stone has likened comic books to modern mythology. Early reviews of The Amazing Spider-Man, in which Stone stars opposite Andrew Garfield, have been generally positive.
