I'm really concerned about my friend. She's feeling really scared every time she tries to do something or when she's just going out. It's like she can't get a handle on her fear. She hasn't seen a doctor about this yet. Do you have any advice on how she might start dealing with this?

I've been dealing with anxiety for years and I have an attack almost every day. Today my heart rate zoomed up to 102, and it felt like I was almost detached from reality. Is this something I should be worried about? What can I do to handle these symptoms better, and when should I consider getting help from a professional?

Experiencing daily anxiety attacks and a heart rate of 102 during such episodes can be distressing. Its essential to address both the psychological and physical aspects of anxiety. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is highly effective in treating anxiety disorders, helping you manage symptoms and reduce the frequency of attacks. Additionally, mindfulness, meditation, and breathing exercises can provide immediate relief during an anxiety attack. Consulting with a mental health professional for therapy and possibly a psychiatrist for medication management can offer a comprehensive approach to treating your anxiety. It's important to seek help to improve your quality of life.
