Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here...Hello! I am a 15 year old girl living in Arizona. Over the past few months, I have had what I believe to be Panic Attacks. They come frequently and leave slowly! How do I minimize or stop them from happening?
Hi. I understand your concern. Panic attack is a kind of anxiety disorder. Stress and anxiety can lead to panic attacks. To minimize it you have to identify underlying trigger events.Stress-free work and activity will help. Do involve in pleasurable activities like music and hobbies. Exercise and meditation will help. Daily schedule work and take proper sleep. It can be treated with medicine like combination of SSRI and benzodiazepine. In SSRI sertraline / Escitalopram will be useful. Do take advise from your treating doctor. Consult psychiatrist and get help. I hope I have answered your question. Still if you have a query then feel free to ask. Get well soon.
