Suggest Treatment For Anxiety
anxiety attacks? hello, I have scheduled a doc appt w my primary tomorrow, but I'm a little worried as he seems to be very laid back. Last Friday I had an extreme attack where my body went numb, locked up to where I could not move and I was having a very hard time breathing. When I arrived at the ER my blood pressure was 150 over 90 and my pulse rate was 120. They gave me a shot of anxiety meds and sent me home w a prescription for Xanax. I had another attack this morning and took a pill to calm down. It has worked mostly, but now I can barely walk across the floor without getting lightheaded and having my heart rate increase. How do I make it stop? could it be something else besides anxiety?

hiiii
1st need to identify causes
only blood pressure can not decide any problems
1st undergo basic instigation to rule out heart related problem
if hey came normal than we think about panic disorder which is subtype of anxiety
if panic attack is there than u have to take prophylaxis to prevent further attack
like paroxetine 12.5 mg and clonazepam .5 mg
do e
regular hyper breathing exercise
meditations
stress free life style
understand psychological problems
identify trigger points
stick on medicines
proper sleep and diet
hope all this help
thank u
