I have helped and am helping people cope with loss, divorce, anguish and parenting. Depression is also a major issue that comes up.

The best way to go about seeking medication for panic attacks is through a professional. We here at 7 Cups can not prescribe any medication and it would greatly benefit you to seek it through someone who has way more knowledge than us. :)
Breathe in for 4 seconds. Hold for 7 and breathe out for 8 seconds. This is actually proven to help calm yourself down. I have very frequent panic attacks and this helped me so much
There are many different medications available for all anxiety disorders, including panic attacks/panic disorder. Because these medications can be very different for different people, it is important to talk with a professional physician or psychiatrist about which ones may be right for you in your situation. There are both long-term medications and short-term medications available. A professional could also suggest vitamins and supplements that may help, as well.
