Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

Don't know if : This is a minor or an adult. If you are a minor please let your parents know so that they can arrange help for you. Are your apprehensive about going to school? Uncomfortable leaving your family or home? Consider seeing a therapist for cognitive behavioral therapy to work on these panic attacks. Take care.
