My doctor has decided to wean me off diazepam which even though I felt it had no effect anyway, its secretly killing me. Whenever I was having a really bad panic episode (once so badly hyperventilated I turned blue and passed out) the action of taking the diazepam maybe helped in a placebo kind of way.
My anxiety is terrifying me lately. I already have lung damage from blood clots and asthma on top of this which is flaring up lately.
I think at the moment I have an ear and chest infection and I'm finding hard to breathe which is making me panic really badly.
I have no diazepam left and they wouldn't give me any even if I asked.
I don't think I can do without medication. Already taking antidepressants just to get through. However for acute anxiety episodes what works best?
I'm hoping theres a medication out there that actually works on relaxing you.
