Heart is racing and throat feels like it's closing up. Don't know what to do to calm down if anyone has any advice please comment. Last week I seen my new primary care doctor and she seen but at the same time I was having a panic attack, so she said either I got to the er or walk around so I walked around outside which helped but still felt my heart and palms sweating cause of the attack, but when I went back into the office I was feeling a bit better so I explained that I needed a refill and a referral to a psych and reason why I left my old psychs cause he wasn't doing his job and prescribed me something that made my panic attacks worse and when I try to contact him he's no where to be found, so that's why, but my primary care said that I have to make a effort to look for a new psych and she prescribed me my refill on my xanax for only 14 days. I'm going back to my primary care for blood work so I won't to know if I can get another refill cause it take 2 pills a day one for the day and one at night for sleep and that's it I don't abuse the medication or over use the med just as it is prescribed to me. I know it's gonna take small steps for me to get better and I'm not going to rush it and take big steps one day outta time like my wife says, but if anyone has some advice for me on getting panic attacks at night and what u do to keep relaxed and calm so you can be able to sleep please leave a reply and I'll get back to u
