Hi there Swimswet. Don't know of any San Diego doctors, unfortunately, but I've suffered from panic attacks for years. Were you diagnosed or this is a self-assesment? How do they manifest themselves? Also, what addiction are we talking about? And let me tell you, as the blood pressure may bring an end, the panic attacks are very unlikely to... You just feel like you're going to die, but you really are not - not from it, anyway. It took me long to realize that, but as soon as I interiorized it, I was cured. No more waking up in the middle of the night, hungry for air, no more fear to go out alone, no more dizziness, no more nausea. No doctor ever told me my problems weren't of a medical nature, they kept testing me and finding nothing wrong. I myself, after long, too long, understood that this is all in my head - and it was sudden. I thought that if I was so ill, I should have been dead long ago, and if I am so ill, how come all my tests show up OK? Didn't know anything about panic attacks, I've learned the term much later, but I finally understood that I'm not ill, and it's all in my imagination. Believe it or not, in a few days, all the ordeal that went on for more than five years was gone. The first step you made, you know it's in your head. When you have an attack, keep repeating that to yourself: "it's all in my head, I'm not going to die, I am not ill". Here's an article that basically says the same thing, answering the question whether a panic attack, by the impact on the cardivascular system, can actually cause death: http://ezinearticles.com/?Can-Panic-Attack-Cause-Death?-The-
