A panic attack is not a normal reaction. There's an underlying cause to them, and I tell people that they should get that treated. Benzos are a temporary fix.

A panic attack is not a normal reaction. There's an underlying cause to them, and I tell people that they should get that treated. Benzos are a temporary fix. A friend of mine has panic attacks all the time. He should be on SSRI's but refuses because his anxiety is telling him that they'll destroy him. Can't do any worse than his existing anxiety though.
