How to overcome and prevent panic attacks?

Hello,

We welcome you to icliniq family.

I appreciate the confidence you place in me for your healthcare consultation.

Thank you for taking help from a psychiatrist. I can understand your situation. You may have a panic attack. You should try to follow the below guidelines to prevent panic attacks in the future. It will help you.

1. You should exercise daily for 30 to 45 minutes like at least going for a walk.
2. You should do meditation for 20 minutes daily, just sit in one place in a comfortable position and try to concentrate on your normal breathing, do not stop or force yourself to stop your thoughts, just let it be. It will help you to relax.
3. You should eat healthy home-cooked foods, and avoid junk foods.
4. You must drink enough water.
5. You should spend quality time with friends and family daily or do video calls if you are living away from your family.
6. You should spend time on creative hobbies like reading good books, writing journals, painting, drawing, and learning new skills or language or musical instruments.
7. You should take enough seven to eight hours of sleep daily.
8. You must avoid tobacco or alcohol or any substance abuse.
9. Live your life, do not just spend it.
10. Be bold and confident.

If there is increased frequency and duration of episodes then we need to start medication in the future.

You must get the following blood reports:

1. CBC (complete blood count).
2. Thyroid profile.
3. Random blood sugar.
4. Vitamin B12.
5. Vitamin D3.
