HelloWelcome to Chat Doctor I can understand your situation. I appreciate your effort to seek online support. For panic attacks, SSRIs are the mainstay of treatment like paroxetine, sertraline etc. However, alprazolam, lorazepam and clonazepam are also helpful. Since you have high blood pressure (possibly related to these attacks), you must visit a general physician first to rule out any medical illness. After that, visit a psychiatrist for detailed evaluation and management. Hope it helps Good luckRegards
