Hi
My mum is suffering from bad anxiety. She is to afraid to move incase she has a panic attack. She is currently in hospital and has been in there for 7 weeks. She has COPD and when she was hyperventilating during her panic attacks she had too much carbon dioxide inside. She is due to be given an oxygen type machine to take home next week so hopefully she will be home as being in there for long isn’t doing her much good mental health wise :( She was diagnosed with bipolar 45 years ago and takes lithium for that every night. So that’s the background.. she is really struggling with her anxiety and all we seem to say to her is take deep breaths and she must be getting sick of us saying that lol. Just wondering if they is any other remedies to help? She is so scared to move and that seems to be her biggest fear and sets off the panic. We was thinking of trying CBD oil?
Any advice would be most welcome!
Thanks in advance
