Will I ever be done with these Panic attacks?

[emiwuffie]

I have been having panic attacks ever since early 2015 when I was first ever stang by a wasp and went into anaphylactic shock.(the er doctor said I am allergic to bees/wasps/hornets venom. That day I was rushed back into the er and bum rushed by 5 different nurses and a doctor, one nurse asking me which arm I want the epipen in?  I am like Idc I can't breath stab me! )   I almost died that day, and now I have been having panic attacks almost every other day. I have been prescribed ativan for it, but I can't take that every single time I would become addicted to them. Going outside is hard for me during this time of year, seeing one bee makes me run back into house I am so scared of them. I have an epipen, I just never want to have to use it. What should I do about these frequent panic attacks? This is no fun....living like this....it stress me out super bad.

Don't know where you live, but bees are in short supply these days unless you live near a beekeeper or in farm country, where they have to pay beekeepers to bring in bees for pollination.  Bees are disappearing.  Wasps are still around, and there's no way to guarantee you'll never be stung by a bee or wasp.  Let me put in another way -- if you had an allergy to flowers, which you probably do to some kinds, does it keep you from going outside?  People who don't suffer from anxiety just do what they have to do, it's not pleasant, but they don't worry about it all the time -- just as you were before the wasp sting.  So your problem isn't the chance of being stung, it's the way you've let that fear rule your life.  What you need to do most likely is see a psychologist who specializes in anxiety treatment to see if you can learn to think differently.  That's really the only thing that can cure us chronic anxiety sufferers, though there's no guarantee it will work.  It is what I'd try, because unlike most people with chronic anxiety, you know where it started and can work on that.

Please visit a psyologist or a psycatrist , panic attacks are very treatable. You don't have to be really on meds for long. Just visit a specialist .. God Bless You. And spend less time researching anxiety issues here and there ;-) it makes u worried further..
