Anxiety and stress relief?

Question

I've always had a bit of stress and anxiety, (who doesn't occasionally?) even having a really bad panic attack about a year ago that sent me to the hospital because I thought I was dying. My dad passed away at the age of 45 three months ago. Being the oldest child, I've been in charge of everything. This has stressed me out big time. I'm constantly feeling anxious and out of sorts and I don't know what to do. I've made an appointment to see the doctor about getting some anti-anxiety medication but I don't know what to do until then. Anyone else with anxiety that has found ways to cope or control anxiety and panic attacks? What can I do to help with my problem? I am tired of being like this!

dont tense up in order to fight back against the next panic attack, instead of fighting, accept and float thru the panicky feelings
its most important to relax and breathe deep and slow, this will calm you, try it now
also have a stretch often
best med is valium type as needed, a pill disolved under tongue will stop many panic attacks
prozac is also worth trying if doc refuses benzos then a sedating antihistamine helps

I don't use pills, but I find bananas to be a great stress/ anxiety reliever. Plus, they don't cloud my focus. I'm sorry I can't help better if you don't like them.
