How to treat post traumatic stress disorder?
human
I'm suffering from post traumatic stress disorder and my doctor has prescribe me ativan sublingual at half a dose-im very sensitive to medication- it worked for a couple days, but I'm continuing to have panic attacks particularly at night. They vary in severity the last two nights were god-awful I thought I was going to faint. A family friend of ours who is a doctor said the most I should take is 2 before bedtime. I got a  bit of sleep but woke up with a panic attack took another pill it didnt do anything so here I am writing to you

DearWe understand your concernsI went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. PTSD is a stress disorder. Prolonged stress or stress related to trauma made some alterations in your neural schema and the new alterations became a habit for your body. You need to cultivate new positive schemas to overcome the old habits. Psychotherapy helps in streamlining mental function and balance. Meditation and yoga helps you in thought engineering. Consult a psychotherapist for more. In any case, recovery should take at least 6 months. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.Good luck.
