Talk to Psychiatry on Panic Attacks/Anxiety
Asking for Someone Else, Other, Female, 17 years old, Lahore
I get stressed very easily, and whenever I am under stress or overthink something, I have panic attacks. During these episodes, I experience difficulty breathing and feel extremely anxious. My sleep is also affected—I often wake up several times during the night and don’t get proper, restful sleep. Stress has a significant impact on my health. I become very tense, my hair falls out more than usual, and I generally feel unwell. Even small things can trigger stress and make my symptoms worse.

Thank you for sharing your concerns.Based on the information provided, your symptoms are suggestive of an anxiety disorder, possibly Generalised Anxiety Disorder with panic attacks. Your poor sleep may also be contributing to the severity of your symptoms. However, a detailed psychiatric assessment is necessary to establish the diagnosis and rule out any underlying medical conditions, such as thyroid disorders or anemia, which can sometimes present with similar symptoms. I recommend consulting a psychiatrist for a comprehensive evaluation. Treatment may include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), stress management techniques, and, if indicated, medications. In the meantime, try to maintain good sleep hygiene, engage in regular physical activity, reduce caffeine intake, practice slow deep breathing exercises during panic episodes, and seek support from trusted family members. With appropriate treatment, these symptoms are highly manageable, and most people experience significant improvement.

Thank you for reaching out on the health forum. If you're asking for someone else, the patient herself needs to undergo mental health assessment so that her treatment could be started. This can only be done by a psychiatrist so kindly get in touch.
The symptoms you described are treatable, and with the right support, many people experience significant improvement. A detailed assessment can help identify the underlying cause and create a personalized treatment plan to manage panic attacks, anxiety, and sleep problems. You can book an online session to discuss these concerns in a safe and confidential environment.
