A member asked:

I was told that i only keep experiencing panic attacks! are these daily attacks going to harm me? i am so worried about organ failure. or other damage

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Panic attacks: Panic attacks will not harm you. They will not cause organ failure or other damage. This is one of the most devastating aspects of them, however. People who experience them believe they are in mortal peril & doctors frequently prescribe short acting, potent anti-anxiety meds that only precipitate the symptoms & lead to addiction. There are behavioural and cognitive approaches that are better.
