What is the remedy for panic and anxiety attacks other than taking Xanax?
Patient: hi i just moved and i have been taking xanax for 7 or 8 years now. for panic and anxiety disorder. i was able to overcome agaorophobia. but i still have the attacks. i need a local doctor but they all worry about prescribing it and i understand why. however, i need to continue my regimen Doctor: Hi,Considering that you have panic disorder with agarophobia, it would be better that  you should be treated with some medication that will take care of the disorder per say like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, rather than only taking xanax. Xanax will help reduce your anxiety but not take care of the disorder as such. i would recommend you to meet a local psychiatrist immediately.Best wishes.
