Negative emotions (like sadness, stress, anger, etc.) causes your Serotonin production to be low; when your Serotonin level is low, you are more prone to getting Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Depression, etc.
Medication like Antidepressants (SSRI - Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor) helps to boost Serotonin level.
But there are natural ways to do it without medication. There’s this strange herb called "St John’s Wort" - it is said to be more effective than Prozac. No, it is not for mild depression only and ignore those sayings. In fact, it does help anxiety and panic-attacks as St John’s Wort works like prozac. Other natural ways will be exercise, diet, more exposure to light, etc.
The problem is that, even if your Serotonin is balanced… you have that "learned behavior" in your mind. You need to break that initial cycle to destroy that learned behavior - Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) does this. A technique that you can use without CBT will be Distraction… There are several other techniques to help cope them!
Ok, to use Distraction: Firstly, try to….

In regards to the answers posted; Any Herb that uses the S4 pathway should not ever be used in combination with medication that uses the same. Hypericum perforatum (St Johns Wort) should NEVER be used in combination with anti-depressants, anti-anxiety & insomnia medications.
It’s best to slowly decrease your medications and once stopped transfer onto practitioner-prescribed herbal medicine.
Man made medications have serious side effects during their use & just as powerful side effects from immediate discontinuation.
Health shops & pharmacies products are relatively useless. In order to get true herbal medicine hence effective results you need to consume herbs in their LIquid Extract form (via use of alcohol) which is only available from a Herbalist or Naturopath; they’ll prescribe a mix that’s designed exactly for your personal constitution.

For sleep take 5HTP and L-tyrosine. You can also take them for depression & anxiety. You should always take them with co-enzyme B6 & a multi-vitamin mineral. You can buy these online. Available without a prescription.

Try this for depression - guarana tablets, I’ve found they worked for me, they’re a good mood elevator & they increase energy & are cheap to buy. Also ask a healthfood store about SAM-e, it’s worked for alot of people with depression where nothing else did. It basically works by raising serotonin levels so is the same as taking a prescription anti depressant but without all the side effects & addiction. Also liquid Cellfood can help. Even better there’s a product that combines SAM-e & liquid Cellfood, it’s called Cellfood Liquid SAM-e.
I just found someone selling it nearly half price today & ordered it online from http://www.healthpost.co.nz/ click on products/brands, cellfood & look for Cellfood Liquid SAM-e.
And no this site has nothing to do with me, just found it today. You might have the same product in your country cheaper as the freight costs from New Zealand might be high.
5-HTP increases serotonin also but I think Sam-e might be better.
You could also consult a naturopath for advice, they generally know which brands are better as some brands are poor quality (like the cheap ones in the supermarket). Some health food stores have a naturopath working out the back that you can ask to see & that’s cheaper than seeing one with their own private practice where they charge you for an appointment.
