so many panic attacks for no reason
Ok so i used to have anxiety attacks after my friend died.. for the most part ive been better its been 3 years.. and i havent had many. now that i am away to college, when i went home this weekend i started having the feelings of a panic attack everyday, which is 4 days. I would feel like i was losing control of myself, i got dizzy, sick to my stomach, a feeling of dread, and i couldnt think at all and felt like i was in a daze. I never had a full out panic attack. but the feeling alone was just horrible. Now that i had so many for no reason, ive had anxiety over having another one because i am back at college. I have zoloft from the past, but looking at all the side effects freaks me out more. I dont know what i should do, if they will naturally stop happening, or if i dont do anything they'll get much worse.
help :(

The problem with hoping that anxiety will go away, is that the more you think about it the worse the anxiety gets. I get panic attacks as well, and I know how awful you feel. Even if the anxiety attacks go away as soon as something changes they are going to come back. I know that drug side effects are scary, but your doctor knows your medical history and would not have prescribed it to you. Plenty of people take that drug and are fine. If it helps you manage the anxiety I would get back on it. There are also several books about controlling anxiety if you are dead set against medicine. I hope this helps.
Good luck
