Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX

Thanks for writing to us.

As you have past history of same problem before 13 years and good response with xanax, according to guidelines you should restart xanax preferably after consulting doctor in dose which you had taken in past or you can restart immediately on your own if problem is severe.

Panic disorder or any anxiety disorder can be cured with psychotherapy , specifically with cognitive behavior therapy(CBT). You can ask your doctor for the same after doctor evaluate you in detail with history and mental status examination.You have just started suffering from the problem, so as soon as you consult the doctor/psychiatrist, better the outcome and earlier the improvement.

Hope I have answered your query. If still any confusion, revert back to me with question and related information.

Regards,

Dr.Chintan Solanki.

hello,

I can understand your concern. Purpose of site is to inform and provide sufficient, specific and professional advice. Still it is not possible to generate online prescription according to laws without seeing a patient personally.We are sorry for that inconvenience.

I am a qualified psychiatrist and you have been given answer by me so it is totally professional consultation, no need to worry.Meanwhile you can discuss with your GP for prescription as I described the matter until you can have appointment of psychiatrist.

Hope you got the clear information.

Regards and best wishes for early recovery.
