Panic Disorder Treatment for Busy, Growing Communities
Heavy traffic, crowded stores and new routines in a fast-growing area can become places people avoid after a panic attack.
Treatment can include cognitive behavioral therapy that uses exposure techniques, medication when indicated, decided jointly with the patient, or both, with video follow-up.
Your first video visit confirms the diagnosis, checks for medical causes such as thyroid or heart rhythm problems, and asks about caffeine, triggers and how often attacks happen.
