A doctor has provided 1 answer
Your severe: hypothyroidism should be addressed carefully with your physician / endocrinologist. Are you currently under treatment for your panic attacks? Panic Attacks can be treated with psychotherapy & /or psychiatric medications. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) & behavior therapy can be effective. Medications such as SSRI's or SNRI's may be used. Benzodiazapines are sometimes used as well.
