I have been having panic attacks for the past 13 years. Is this something that you inherit, or does it come from stress or my lifestyle? This has really been so hard on me!! I have 2 boys that really have been affected by this as well as myself.
I have tried the all kinds of meds but they still wont go away. I dont like to be left alone , and i dont like to get out of the house
because the fear of me having a panic attack. Can anyone give me any suggestions on what to do ? Please help !!!

Mine started from a tragedy in my life. I did the meds. I still do an anti-depressant. Breathing exercises help. Make up your own, 3 deep breaths in and blow out or what ever. My grandmother always said you have to fight nerves, I believe that. This is how I try to think, I would have a breakdown today, but I can't I got to go to work, maybe later when I have time.

I suggest you see a Doctor for this problem. There are alot of new medicines on the market today that could really help you!

Hello, I also have panic attacks. I am in the mental health field, and the best advice I can give you is to visit a counselor that you are comfortable with. They will be able to help you with relaxation techniques and help you figure out what triggers the panic attacks. I hope this helps.
