Exhausted and Numb After Panic Attack: Is This Normal?

Yes. After I’ve had a panic attack or anxiety attack, I feel exhausted and like I can’t do anything for the rest of the day except lay in bed, etc. My psychiatrist had me start hydroxyzine. It’s an antihistamine that’s also prescribed to take as needed for anxiety, but isn’t not addictive like benzos and such. It’s not a super strong drug, but I have noticed it helping me be able to function a little better after an attack.

Are you on any medicine ?
