You can do this without meds. I took three years to overcome my panic attacks, i can give you advice if you need... How i did it, and overcame it. I couldn't even leave the house... i would get a panic all the time, like a floating sensation. Its your body that is in adrenalin mode all the time. You just need to be strong and not be scared of what you are feeling, and eventually you will be sick of it, and learn to control. Then eventually it goes away. And im not joking !! i swear to you, and give you my word... We are only human, and sometimes dealing with a lot of stress at once, we get these symptoms. You can take meds, beta blockers...etc.. but why do you want to do this? All you need to do is find out your trigger, and find a way to beat this. just like i did....

i wish you all the best. I had a previous account on this but lost it. I was called dragon before and left my recovery story. But i completely forgot my log in. I love this site because I did come here for advice and to understand that many people had what i had, and believe me you can get through it. I took ages, because i was very bad, and suffered traumatic event....

right now...i am working, and doing management /marketing. Who would have known i could do this job? I tell you... before just working as a junior at a salon stressed me... Now look at me :D !!!! i feel like crying... i get nervous still, but i don't know. i can control it. The only thing i have not overcome is being able to drive without stress, to be honest, i have not even tried !!! :O

That's good that you've made the appt.
Meds have really helped me get my life back.It might take a bit, to sort out different doses and things,but its so worth it in the end.
Good luck xx

there must be a trigger, or too much stress... Why not talk to someone about it. Take a few sprays of rescue remedy. And try not to be scared about how you are feeling. Pm me for more advice if you need, i overcame my panics, but sometimes i do get them still. But barely what they used to be.
