No medication, train yourself to be less self-conscious. Eventually, you should less care about what others think, because it's more cool, you know. You're still young, but eventually you should realize that nobody really cares about anything. If you feel like panic attack is going to kick in, slap yourself on the cheek and say, nobody gives a shit, everything will be fine, start thinking about some comedy movie or music or something and move on. Racing heart is good, it's like exercising.

I also have anxiety attacks, I was always social.. I could talk a stranger into buying a 50,000 dollar car. But ever since my 18 year old brother was murdered a few months ago. I cant seem to do anything or go anywhere without having panic attacks. I lost my job, dropped out of college and moved back in with my mom. Ive tried pills such as xanax, alprozolams, hydrocodene and trazodone. None of them help. I even tried smoking hydro weed.. It calmed me down for an hour or 2 but thats about it.

Yes take prescribed medication for your anxiety

@lomussk8 even a doctor will tell you that you have to weigh out the advantages and benefits from the disadvantages and the risk of side effects. This could be different for everyone, because everyones body is different

[unleasheth]

@lomussk8 its off label use is and has been now for anxiety and depression, believe me, im on it right now for that very reason and I know many many people who are on it for the same issues. Ultram effects serotonin receptors in the brain, not just the opiate sector, this is why so many people get relief from this where as they may have not gotten relief from the standard approach of the normal regimen of SSRIs or SDRIs or SNRIs etc. Yes all opiates have a tolerance issue and side effects. But

[lomussk8]

@unleasheth Thats completely false, Crazyjeky, it will lead to other problems and it is NOT FDA approved to treat anxiety/depression. Synthetic Opiates will provide Physical pain relief but side effects are MUCH worse to you than anti-anxiety medications.

[unleasheth]

what you have to sometimes. Try going to your doc though and seriously try getting Ultram, that shit is just enough to knock the edge off of everything in general. It will help you so much with social stuff or phobias or even panic attacks, however start off small cause theres a slight chance it could send you into a panic attack (highly unlikely though). You shouldnt have a prob getting the meds for your doc as they now prescribe it for more than just pain, you can get it for anxiety/depression

[unleasheth]

Try Ultram (Tramadol) see if that helps, if not try some hydrocodone or other opiates. Its been studied that people with anxiety/depression get relief from opiates and not anti depression meds (in some people). And I am one of those people that doesnt respond to prozac or the likes, it makes me feel neutral or zombied out, and I hate that. I took some opiates and BAM, Im totally awake, very socialable, lots of energy, and really happy. The things is, yes you can get hooked, but, ah well you do
