Looking for hope

Mon, 09-10-2012 - 9:12am

I have suffered from panic attacks for as long as I can remember.  I have been on Pexeva now for a few years and it seemed to be working so well that I downed my doses from 40 to 10mg.  Recently, I have been suffering from panic attacks, almost every day.  I went from working 80 hours a week down to about 50.  It seems that my mind doesn't know how to relax any more.  I woke up in the middle of the night tonight, suffering from a tight chest, racing heart, and stomach ache.  I am looking for some kind of hope to get me through this, without medication.  Has anyone been able to calm their mind without changing medicines or possibly completely going off?
