Re: Overcoming anxiety without medication!!
Hi Pixette,
1. Several of the SSRI antidepressant meds are also licensed for panic disorder and can reduce panic attacks by mood alteration.
They are a means to help you feel well enough to tackle the isuses, not a long term stand alone cure though.
2. Many people overcome panic disorder by therapy.
CBT being the most researched effective therapy but hypnotherapy is also popular. Using herbal and flower remedies are also an aveneue that many find helpful. If you read down our alternative therapy section , you'll get an idea of what else is out there .
You might want to glance through the NICE guidelines which are posted under remedies or self help on the left of your page .
