It depends on what brings the attacks on. . . . well, on second thought. . . A person with chronic anxiety attacks really should seek help because the constant stimulation of your sympathetic nervous system (the fight or flight response) will not allow your body to function correctly. . . once the person gets help, he/she will be able to do any job he/she desires.

As a fellow anxious person, I find that if you find a job that you enjoy, you won’t be as likely for an attack. The people that you work with really will effect you’re ability to control your anxiety, too. When you go for an interview remember that you are also interviewing the employer, don’t be afraid to ask questions. Be up front about yourself, they will respect you for it and be able to give you a realistic view of your tasks. If it’s something that you feel you’d be able to handle, go for it. If not, don’t waste your time and theirs by trying to fit into a mold. I work at a vet clinic and it can get really stressful at times, but most of the time just being around the animals helps to calm me. You just have to find your outlet and try to make it into a profession.

A temp office job. Office jobs – usually jobs about computers – don’t require a lot of personal communication with people, and thus less stress, less anxiety.
Plus, if you’re feeling badly, you don’t have to have a job. Temp jobs are perfect in this way.

If you have bad anxiety attacks then you’d have to find a job where you don’t have deadlines . . . sanitation worker, babysitter (teenagers), telemarketer. . .

I’ve got the same problem and am currently receiving SSI from the state. You should look into receiving the same thing. Go to your local Social Security office and ask about SSI benefits. Atleast that way you can get an ok amount of money until you figure out what it is you want to do with your life. Good luck!
