You must be confusing legitimate scientifically proven methods like psychotherapy, antidepressants and serotonin/dopamine supplements etc. with homeopathy and "alternative medicine" (kooky new age BS).
I'm not on antidepressants yet, but my psychologist tells me that medication might be required for treatment of my situation, so I can't personally vouch for them, but there are lots of cases where they have worked. You mostly only hear about the nightmare scenarios.
i've taken antidepressants once, but will not again. they make me feel absolutely no emotions.

realization of how in my hands i'm holding a deadly weapon and the fate of mine and other people's lives could be at stake, and i don't think i could live with myself if that ever happened.

0 - 100 real quick buddy
I used to be afraid of driving, it's a really scary thing for a beginner. You will actually get used to it faster than you think and all it takes is getting behind the wheel despite your anxiety and taking it slow.
but when i'm anxious i can't think and my head starts to spin.

i don't believe in psychological medicine (don't even get me started)
i also try to talk to my friends about this but they keep asking me rhetorical questions like if i want to ride public transit for the rest of my life or taxis.

no i've only driven once and moved like 20 feet.
i think the panic attacks are caused by my realization of how in my hands i'm holding a deadly weapon and the fate of mine and other people's lives could be at stake, and i don't think i could live with myself if that ever happened.

i mean i couldn't really give less of a stuff about driving. my family, however, keeps provoking me to do it for some odd reason.

not a driver's license, a temporary license (the one you get before an actual driver's license)

i got my temporary license 2 months ago, and i haven't drove since. i think this fear spawned due to the fact my mom just gave me the keys the day i got my license, and i had a panic attack.
