How do you prevent panic attacks when you’re driving?
Sometimes I feel fine and sometimes I feel like I’m having a panic attack. I’m not depressed…some people take anti-depressants to help. What do you take to help with this problem?
I suffer from panic attacks, but I dont drive… but to help them in general I reccomend CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) to find the real reason why your panicking..it might be totally opossit to what you think it is.



This has happened to me often while driving. It can be really scary if you don’t know what is happening to you. My doctor prescribed me valium for my panic attacks. I am currently 36 weeks pregnant so I have not been able to take my medication for the past 8 months. I try to have someone else drive as much as I can. I carpool to work and I try not to go places alone. Sometimes I just pull off the road into a parking lot until I can get the attack under control. Anti-depressants did not help me at all with the panic disorder, but that doesn’t mean they wouldn’t work for you. Talk to your doctor and see what they can do for you.
