Hi I'm new here

[TLCTNT]

I have had anxiety, panic and depression since 1986. It has been fairly well controlled with meds. The last week it has been bad for no reason I can think of. 6 or more attacks a day and I don't know what to do, no one understands unless they have it too so here I am.

Maybe changing the medication? I been dealing with non stop panic attacks for 6 weeks now. Last time I had a panic attack was when I was a teen. I don't know where the hell are they coming from now. I am on medication but it's not working.

I've been on the same meds for years and I think my body and brain are used to them. My insurance doesn't cover a phych anymore so I see my regular PA and she doesn't want to increase my meds but take me off them. Then I would really have no kind of life.

My doc doesn't understand, she mentioned putting me in the hospital. It's not physical, it's mental. An imbalance.

[HopingCat in reply to TLCTNT]

What kind of doctor is that! That's horrible. She's suppose to help you! Why would she want to put you in a hospital?

[TLCTNT in reply to HopingCat]

Because she has no idea what she is doing. Hospital is not a good word to say to someone who is panicing and afraid of hospitals!!!! Was in one 2hrs with a broken leg once and that was too long, I had to be sedated.
