How Can Panic Attacks, OCD, Bronchitis And Loss Of Confidence Be Treated?
Hello, I have been having problems with my ocd since childhood but it was diagnosed recently and I have been suggested to either go for medication or to go for cognitive behavior therapy. I recently lost my job and had bronchitis which led to a sudden panic attack. Since then I am on franxit/frestina and nebicard 2.5. The frestina doesn't seem to help a lot as I still get panic attacks sometimes. I try to relax and calm myself down. I am afraid of stepping out as I feel I might get an attack and I am scared. Is there any way where my situation could be helped as I am losing confidence slowly. Thanks
I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You do not have to loose your confidence. Mental disorders take time to cure. The best thing you can do is to keep yourself calm and work with your psychiatrist and therapist. The treatment method you are prescribed is usually suitable for OCD. You should talk to your therapist about yoga and meditaton in addition to CBT. Exercise, Life style changes, change in thinking pattern, relaxation etc are as essential as medicines. Psychotherapy can help you changing your lifestyle and thinking patterns. Yoga and meditation help you to streamline your metabolism and neurological balance. Please consult your psychologist for further information.
