Anxiety!!

[sophieeb]

hey I’m sophie. I am 16 years old, I’m really new to this website but not new to anxiety... I’ve been suffering from anxiety for about 3 months now. I feel like I’m dying almost everyday. I wish the days away. I take meds but it doesn’t take the panic attacks away. I’m terrified of panic attacks. It’s the worst feeling in the world. Any tips on how to really Calm your panic Attacks I need real peoples opinions not the internet’s anymore!!

Hi. What meds are you on? When I took Xanax and Klonopin only, they only helped a little. Not until I got on Imipramine did my panick attacks stop DEAD IN THEIR TRACKS. Imipramine is an old trycyclic antidepressant, it’s not like the new ones that they likely prescribed you. It’s so old most younger doctors would have never even prescribed it. It fell out of favor once the newer ones came out, but for anxiety and panic disorder it can work magic

Hi.

Meditation helps me. There’s loads of good ones on YouTube .

Welcome to you.

You will learn a lot about anxiety here. In my opinion there’s no quick fix, there is learning to manage it well. Lots of things to help, it’s about what works for us, as we are individual in it. What works for one doesn’t always work for another, but trying things out is a great start, and we can learn to manage it well...

I’ve learnt a lot along the way and being here is helpful, reading posts and interacting.

I wish you well xx
