BEST?: The best are the ones that help you. Hopefully a good psychiatrist can pick the ones most likely to help. But medications don't cure this - good psychotherapy does. The meds stabilize and the therapy makes the basic changes.

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. Many people respond very well to cranial electrotherapy stimulation.
