Suggest Treatment For Anxiety

hello, i have been having anxiety attacks. I know it may sound foolish but my recent gades werent good and now its my final year. I m scared. I am terrified actually and its really affecting my mental peace and causing depression. i dont know how to overcome this fear. I also think i might commit suicide if i dont get god grades in my final year. I m too stressed. and i know its foolish of me to be this scared but i dont know what to do. i cant talk about this with my parents. They ll say you just need to work hard. But the thing is i studied hard for this exam too but the grades didnt come out well. What if the same happens in finals?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello dear
Understand your concern
I think you need psychiatric consultant and immediate treatment:
I think you have anxiety due to phobia to particular reasons like exam.
Advice for you:
Be relax first and be positive.
Just Go through exam with good preparation and do not think about result.

Treatment:
Psychotherapy
Relaxation therapy
Do not spend time alone
Read in library or with friends and do discussion of study
Cognitive behavioral therapy
Life style change: Healthy diet, adequate sleep, good company, excercise
Avoid alcohol, caffeine and smoking

Drugs:
Benzodiazepam: alprazolam
SSRIs: citalopram
Olanzapine and pregabalin

But it should be taken after consult to psychiatric.
And do not stop drug without consult the doctor.

Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
