Since my last job, I started getting anxiety attacks, at least that is what I call them.

They start out with this overwhelming feeling in my chest, panicky sensations that are just horrible. I can't adequately describe all the symptoms, but I told my pdoc about them.

Since my bp cycling seems to be stable, thanks to Geodon and Ambilify, he told me that my job had caused these feelings and to try Clonazapam and Lorazapam to see if it helps.

There are times when they work really well and make it possible to go to work. Other times it takes both to get me there. I just started a new job and there really is no stress, yet the attacks continue anyway.

Any thoughts on how to calm these sensations down?
