Idk where or why I’ve developed these panic attacks. I used to have panic attacks when something crazy happened which I find is normal. But now I’ve started to have panic attacks for stupid things like spending a lot of money or starting at my new job or just social interactions in general. It may be from going through a course of accutane which is know to cause those things. But I’m so sick of not being confident to do things like meeting new people or perform well at a new job. I panic all the time and get dizzy and my heart starts pounding. I’ve spent the last year or 2 dealing with this thinking it will eventually go away but it’s not going away. And I’m scared of medication bc of the way it changes my face. I’ve tried Ativan for panic attacks but it makes me look so ugly it makes my face droop. Can ppl please share there experiences with daily anxiety medication if it worked for their panic attacks and if it’s been worth it. And if that type of medication changes your face like Ativan does. 

I’ve always been the type that is scared of taking medication especially like that but these panic attacks are not going away no matter how healthy I treat my body. It’s ruining my life. I used to be so confident and happy now I can barely do things without starting to panic for such stupid reasons.

Edit: spending a lot of money and new job I guess aren’t stupid things to panic over but I am referring to panicking to the point where I feel so sick and actually can’t do it bc I’m afraid I’ll panic and get dizzy to the point where I have to sit down and take deep breaths so I don’t feel like I’m gonna faint.
