Does any one else suffer from anxiety & Panic Attacks?!


Question: Does any one else suffer from anxiety & Panic Attacks!?
Answers:
Yes, I do ;) I also have ocd/obsessive-compulsive disorder and can get panic attacks in response to an ocd episode so I know where you're coming from!. In addition to the ssri/selective serotonin (serotonin is a neurotransmitter/chemical messenger in the brain) reuptake inhibitor anti-depressant 'prozac weekly' (other ssri's include paxil and zoloft), I receive counseling to help with coping skills!. There is a deep breathing technique that may help reduce anxiety, and there are a couple of ways to do that!. I place my hand on my stomach which allows abdominal breathing as opposed to the from the lungs which isn't as cleansing and slowly breathe in thru the nose and then slowly out thru pursed lips!. Best to be careful not to do too fast or can hyperventilate and then pass out and have other problems from that!.

I'd received cognitive-behavioral therapy for the ocd (from clinical psychologist/Ph!.D!.) but that can be used for other anxiety disorders as well just in a different way!. Please talk with a licensed therapist about your anxiety and panic attacks!. If thinking about medication, please consider a psychiatrist as opposed to the family dr since they are more versed on psychotropic meds, dosage and such!.
