Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for writing to healthcaremagic.

From your complaints it seems that you are suffering from panic disorder because you have panic attack with anticipatory anxiety and it hampers your day to day activity

Only diazepam will give you just symptomatic relief. SSRIs(Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) will help you more with benzodiazapines.

Keep one thing always in mind ,due to panic disorder you will not die.
Behaviour therapy will help you a lot.Specifically cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) with or without pharmacotherapy gives excellent results when patient is quite motivated.

Consult psychiatrist.It is curable disorder.

Hope I have answered your query,
Regards,
Dr.Chintan Solanki.
