Hello doctor,

I am a 21-year-old male with a height of 8 feet and 159 pounds. I have been affected by panic attacks. I am currently under no medication.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I understand that panic attacks are very intriguing experiences in human life and could cause a lot of damage to the mental and physical health of an individual. Although it is difficult to say that you are really suffering from panic attacks, as definition by a nonmedical person is quite different, and there is a lot of literature over the internet having misinformation about panic attacks. If you have really diagnosed by some psychiatrist in the past, then you need to take another consultation as soon as possible to assess whether you really need any intervention in this regard.

You can also contact us for an online consultation with a detailed history, as we have a lot of experts in the field of psychiatry.

Thanks and regards.
