mummy3 asked:


I am a panic attack sufferer and hae been for quite a few years, and now has decided to stop the medication because I hated the side effects. The problem is, when I am at work they are triggered (or seem they are) by the lights, as they are very bright as it is in a shop. Is this normal?

rockandroll4ever23 asked:


I have taken medications and they make me unable to function and sometimes very sick, does anyone know what to do or who to talk to about this? My doctors answer is more meds but there has to be a better answer.

shannon asked:


I’ve suffered from panic/anxiety attacks for about a year now. They are brought on by aches and pain, or stress at work (I’m a retail manager). Those who have suffered from attacks before understand that even though you know you are fine, your body tells you something different and it’s so hard to calm down. I want some natural alternatives, rather than taking medication. I don’t have money to go to a pyschologist, so I’m searching for other methods of keeping calm. Any suggestions/sources, especially from those who have personal experience, would be great. I need ideas to prevent them, and ideas to treat them when I have them. Thanks for your help. Serious answers only please.
BTW- I was on lexapro for 6+ months and took klonopin when needed, but I don’t want to go that route again. I don’t want to be on medication
