I have been prone to stress and anxiety for as long as I can remember. Lately I have been getting panic attacks – sudden increased heart rate, hot flushes, trembling, nausea, stomach cramps etc. These are situationally-bound. Would these home remedies be sufficient in preventing panic attacks or do I need to see a psychiatrist who can prescribe stronger medication? I am desperate to get rid of this problem. I am a trainee psychologist (of all people!)and this is really an embarrassing problem which I am reluctant to discuss with anyone due to the profession I am in. I have tried different relaxation methods, some of which have worked in the past but are no longer effective.

Marie I am taking buspar i believe its buspirone, it takes longer to kick in like 6 wks but it’s not habit forming like ativan & other benzodiazipines. Check it out it’s not drowsy at all.

I have panic/anxiety attacks and mine as well appear out of no where. They were quite scary, I thought that I was going to die that is how bad they seemed but I found that if I just close my eyes and scream STOP quitely in my mind over and over a few times along with some slow and deep breathes in and out it really helps. I also tell my self everything is ok it is just an attack and it will be over soon this also helps. It is all in our minds when these things happen, we just have to learn to be in control of our mind instead of it controlling us!! I hope this helps whomever may need it!!
