Anxiety and Panic Attacks

Duece asked:


I have been having panic attacks for over a year now. Although I have not had a panic attack for a while because I have been on medication specifically lexapro. I have been dealing with anxety problems off and on as well. The medication has helped a lot but I really don’t like how it affects some things in my life, like my sex drive. I wanted to see if anyone knew of an alternative way to help me so I can discontinue the meds.

I have been having really bad panic attacks lately and they seem to happen a lot when I am at work. I just wanted some advice on how to stop panic attacks immediately without any medication. I would appreciate any of your advice because these panic attacks have been taking a toll on me and they are awful. I have prayed a lot since they started and I just want things to be better.

Ben V asked:


She started having panic attacks in the mourning and blackouts. She went to the Doctor and he perscribed anti-depressants for her and told her she had a chemical inbalance. The Doctor didn’t test her or anything he just asked her question for about ten minutes then perscribed anti-depressants. He later then got his license to practice medicine taken away. Her panic attacks went away but eventually she will have to go off the medication. I have been reading about panic attacks and I am psych major so I understand a little bit about the brain and disorders can anyone help shed more light on the subject of panic attacks and black outs?
