Hello KingAmber,

I am sorry to hear you are struggling so severely.

Goes without saying that your doctors are much more suitable for professional advise.

What is stopping you from following their recommendation?

Have you had any major events in your life recently?

Are you worried about taking medications related to anxiety?

Our brain is so strong it can make us feel the weirdest pain during anxiety/panic attacks. My fingers go numb and my calves cramp. I also feel like I can’t breath or get a deep breath. If it would make you feel better request a heart test to make sure it’s nothing serious! If all checks out start looking into therapy or meds your dr. recommends. There is hope!

Thanks for this reply I also get the numb fingers and cramps . Have you found anything that helps?

Therapy can be helpful for anxiety attacks. Have you looked into counseling at all? The counselor can teach you ways to cope with your anxiety. One way is to use the five senses to ground yourself in the present moment. I hope that you can find the support that you need.
