Dear Hamster,
I am sorry that you are having these panic attacks...that must just be awful.
I wonder what meds your pdoc put you on....
private message me if you don't feel comfortable posting that here.
Are you taking any mood stabilizers or other meds for your bipolar treatment? some folks take seroquel for obcessing or racing thoughts...
I only take geodon when I feel my "motor" is going too fast.
Lamictal is my mood stabilizer and I take a sleeping pill....cause I can't sleep otherwise.
Valiium has the longest half life of the benzos family so it stays in your system a long time. you can also take smaller doses to see what dose works best for you.
Having a therapist who is willing to work with you and a pdoc who listens is really important. I hope you feel good about the people on "your team".
Hang in there...I am sure you are overwhelmed and let us know how we can help you...we will try.
((((HUGS))))
