Psychiatrist 's  Response
HI
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have generalized anxiety disorder and you need antidepressant along with low dose benzodiazepine. That would help to control anxiety symptoms along with panic attacks. You can consult a psychiatrist for proper management. You can also do some relaxation exercise. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
