This most likely has been asked a million times...

But has anyone or do you know anyone that has had anxiety/panic attacks that have gone away after a few months never to be seen again?

I think mine was from shortly after I broke my ankle,so everyone said oh it is situational and will go away, but it is a month now and ive been walking on the leg feel fine yet have these terrible anxiety every day, like a fear, horrible feelings. im giving the Lorazepam a try as Dr. said and seems to think after using a month it will go away...hummm not so sure about that but we shall see..

[rippi in reply to Pickle165]

How long before it went away?

[Lions13]

Yes. Without the need for medication.

I had panic disorder for ages and medication and therapy. Panic attacks went when i was able to tell myself it was just a panic attack whilst having it.

See this makes me feel better..when I see people saying they have had it for years I just think "that's it's you're stuck with this forever"

no but ive heard they can depending on the cercomstances, I just got mine a little over a month ago and it is still here seeming to be getting worse so far, the Dr, gave me a tranquilizer Lorazepam and of course when i take that im fine, but now and then doesnt seem to work as well, he claims if i take it 3 times a day morn noon and nite after a month it will go away, ive been doing 2 cause at nite im fine and sometimes 1 does it for me all day and nite. so it has been just under a week waitng til end of month to see what happens, went to shrink she says get on prozac, I really dont want to get on any of that stuff but may have to in the end if it doesnt go away, most of what ive read it doesnt just go away.

I sure hope so this is new to me so right now it is a month came from out of the blue after a break in my ankle, never had anything like this before, but I have heard depending on the cercumstances it can go, so im hoping mine will, this is the worst thing ive ever had and ive had alot of health issues..I wish you the best, do you even know what caused your's to start up? are you on anything, seen a Dr? you should it will help..
