I Have Been Having Alot Of Panic Attacks. Should I Go See The Doc?

for the last year i have been having alot of panic attacks.They just started out of nowhere.well throughout the year the more panic attacks i get, the more nervous i get,the more nervous i get, the more stressed out i get and its a neverending circle.Ever since then it has just been getting worst,now i just worry about everything (mostly my health) and sometimes i even get so scared to leave my house.I dont know what came over me and i dont know how to stop it.i have been putting off going to the doctor because im so anti-pill. I dont wanna have a drugged feeling by taking pills to help my panic.im just one big emotional rollercoaster most of the time i just cry.I feel like my life is going downhill.I dont know what to do anymore.Can anybody help? Should i go see the doc?is that my only choice?

Hello.welcome.You are stressed out a lot and having depressive state of mind.Just take sometime off from whatever you are doing.Introspect yourself.you will see you are having so many things which others are not having.there are millions of people who don't get even one meal a day or don't have proper house to live.Once clarity comes things would be better.Start a healthy lifestyle which includes regular exercises,healthy diet and abstaining from cigarettes and alcohol .Soon you will feel better.Then you decide whether to consult a psychiatrist or not.If you still think then you must consult him.good luck.
