Xanax is a god send for my panic attacks when i can get it prescribed
Does certain sounds and visual events trigger it but it really doesn't seem to be a fear as such but rather just iriates you? You want away from the noise? Loss of concentration is also common. I have upper torso spasms{seizures} from this. Certain sounds for example drive me nuts and trigger seizures if i don't get away from them. If so you are likely a Vestibular Patient and the Inner Ear is triggering the attacks. It does take a different medication approach than antidepressants and most doctors and especially Shrinks are clueless too it.
I can tell horror stories abot Ambien and hypnotics, though. Ugh.
