Anxiety and mild panic attack

Comment by Chad J. Dupuis, L.Ac.

Yes, of course, but as with all things in Chinese Medicine the western names for the symptoms are functionally useless in the paradigm of diagnoses used for choosing appropriate treatment (see “treating the cause vs. the symptoms” for more on that).

In short, what this means is that you need to consult directly with a practitioner to get proper care and whatever would work for you now needs to be monitored as your improve because you will likely need something else and then ultimately nothing. It’s is more of a process of healing than symptomatic management which is so often the case in western medicine.
