Anyone been on beta-blockers for the treatment of panic / anxiety?

I have had panic attacks and generalized anxiety for some time now and I get shortness of breath and have chest pain. I went to the emergency room and my family dr. many times, and they all say that my chest pain and tachycardia is due to panic / Anxiety. I'm having a hard time believeing it! So, do beta blockers work and how long they are usually prescribed for this and how long take to work? I'm still havong symptoms. I am also starting effexor xr 150mgs. Any advice would be helpful!

You need to buy the book, the prescription for Nutritional Healing by Phyllis A. Balch, CNC and James F. Balch, MD They have a section on anxiety. I use to be on paxil for anxiety, but never cured or made better, I still have 10-20 panic attacks a month. So I changed my diet, and read the section of this book, and took the supplements. Now I rarely need to take supplements, a doctor in the ER one night said that my anxiety was causing half of my "symptoms". Heart palpation was a large, they put me on beta-blockers. You need to know that your anxiety is causing your heart to palpitate. Doctor explained it as a kettle in very high fire with a top that will not leave. Sooner or later you have to stop, breathe, say if there is nothing physically wrong with yourself (even if you have symptoms, numbness, a feeling that everything is surreal, heart palpitations, etc.). The doctor said it will not work immediately, but if ever you have a panic attack you talk yourself through it, and tell your own anything is wrong, take a deep breath, after about 20 or more times their attacks and decrease the duration. In short, you rarely have more of them. Good luck my friend, contact me if you have more questions.
