I started having panic attacks in 2014 when I was caring for my brother and my father …both dying. I understand so well the horrible physical feelings….you would chew off your own arm if it would make it stop. My doc gave me clonazepam “ just in case I couldn’t handle it and to help keep me out of ER……..I scoured the internet for help and found the D.A.R.E program by Barry Mcdonagh
You can get his book on Amazon and download the app for free. I swear it is the only thing that helped me! I have given his book to several friends . His belief…the more you run from your anxiety the worse it will be and he is so right! The free app has daily recordings . I hope you will check this out and I hope it helps you ! Sending a hug your way

@ ymca49
Wanted to add. I very seldom have to take the clonazepam…my doc said as long as you know you have it as a last resort…you won’t need it and she was so right! It’s just my security blanket but I can handle it on my own now thanks to D.A.R.E

@ymca49 Thank you so much for this recommendation, I have downloaded it and started listening. I get so consumed by my anxiety and stuck in my own head & thoughts, I find it hard to even focus on every day things! Yet it all sits there waiting to be done! I am hoping this DARE approach will help.... thank you again
