I used to get panic attacks. My doctor prescribed something for me but I wouldn't take it. I didn't want to take something that may be addictive. I heard that B-complex vitamins are supposed to help with stress and anxiety. Now I take a daily multi vitamin that already has 100% of the recommended B vitamin dose, and I also take one high potency B-complex vitamin. I use Wal-Mart's brand of multivitamin and Spring Valley natural B complex, also found at Wal-Mart. B vitamins are water soluble so what your body doesn't use it flushes out. I don't know if it actually helps or if it's a placebo effect and it's all in my mind, but either way it has worked for me. Best of luck!!!

There has been some good advice already. You need to identify the stresses in your life. Reduce stress and this will reduce your panic attacks. There are techniques to use during a attack. I find the best one is to breath into a paper bag. Slow your breathing and remind yourself it will end soon. I still get the occasional panic attack but know I have the skills needed to cope with them. You can too...

Hi there, I just laugh about my past 3 years of panic now. I was not able to go anywhere without carrying xanax. Fear of having another attack was the most important subject of my days.When i first found joe barry's web site i started to cry because of my happiness.

Sing that Gloria Gainer song - ''I will Survive'' at the top of your lungs for ten minutes, the keep on whistling it or humming it to yourself and everything will fall into place

most of my attacks happen in crowded places (like walmart, the mall, bar, concerts). most of the time i just have to walk out. i just started taking medication for it and i have already noticed a difference! have you talked to your dr about it? they should be able to prescribe you something!

Find a good therapist and do cognitive therapy. If they're frequent and severe anti-anxiety med may help.
