Treatment for anxiety attacks
For the last few months I am suffering from depression and having anxiety attacks. I had covid 3 months back and situation has only worsened since then. In the current WFH scenario am getting stressed out too frequently more so since working hours have increased considerably. I have tried yoga, exercise, morning/evening walks but nothing seems to make me feel better. Is this normal post covid? Or is this due to the sedentary lifestyle due to the pandemic? And what is the solution?

Hi
I know the covid-19 pandemic has created uncertainty all over the globe. You had covid three months back and a lot of people are going through emotional issues because of the pandemic. I know it can take time to adjust to the work from home scenario. The work from home scenario is making you feel stressed. To feel better you can consult a psychologist. You can talk about how you have been feeling during the pandemic. I know you have tried a lot of things to feel better during the pandemic. Once you explain about how you are feeling a psychologist can help you work towards feeling calm and positive. A psychologist will help you explore coping mechanisms that can help you manage anxiety and feel calm.
Next Steps
Consult a psychologist.

Anxiety and depression are being commonly reported as post-covid symptoms that linger on for some time. I would suggest you to seek the opinion of the doctor who treated you for Covid, on taking help from a psychiatrist / psychologist. You may also take the opinion of your family physician on it, if your Covid doctor is not available. If you are getting advised by your doctor to seek help from mental health professionals (psychiatrist / psychologist) please follow the same.
Next Steps
Please consult your Covid doctor or family physician.

I am sorry to hear you are feeling this way. COVID does impact people in a lot of ways. It seems you are aware of your mental health and have tried multiple ways to help feel better. All the things you described are called coping skills. These help you cope with your day to day stressors but do not address the underlying issue.
Your lifestyle seems to be bothering you here and your thoughts could be causing the panic attacks.
Are there other changes that you have noticed in terms of sleep, food habits, feeling isolated from everyone, lack of motivation?
Next Steps
Contact a mental health therapist for consultation. You can also reach out to me and we can talk further
Health Tips
You need to work on the issue causing you distress.

Hello there
I can understand what you are going through. There could be many reasons behind your current condition. I get it how you might be feeling especially when you are returning back to normal condition after Covid 19. As you have mentioned about your work, your situation shows that it has taken a lot for you to adjust to so many factors like Covid recovery, work from home as the new normal as well as social distancing. These all may together could be the reason of your condition.
I know that you have tried a lot of things like yoga, meditation, etc. But right now you have to consult a counsellor or a psychologist. Because you need proper reasons, proper solutions, and plan of action before your condition gets worsen.
Don't worry, you can contact me and I will help you towards your recovery. We will explore your reasons as well as proper solutions to your problems.
Everything will be alright. Stay strong and stay safe. You can do it. Take care
