Dr. Paul Pyles answered

Specializes in Addiction Medicine

See a psychologist : See a psychologist to learn relaxation techniques. Psychotherapy helps. Avoid use of stimulants such as caffeine. Sometimes medication is needed and is the best treatment for severe and incapacitating anxiety. Don't rule out your options. Best wishes to you for an improved quality of life.
