Suggestions for panic attacks?

Posted by partlycloudy on October 6, 2004, at 8:59:50

I've been prescribed to take .5mg of xanax twice a day. My panic attacks are persistent and non-situational for the most part. I'm not happy having to rely on this benzo for peace.

I try to slow my breathing down.
I try drinking a glass of water.
I try going for a walk away from my desk.
I try sitting still and grounding myself.
I get extremely irritated by noise (voices, radio) but I'm not able to isolate myself at work for more than a few minutes.

What would be a good coping exercise for a nervous nellie like me?
