I used to have panic attacks many years ago. And They vanished till recently. I am under a great deal of stress not working, running out of money and no support from my adult daughter.
I just saw a T and he recomended Paxil and wean me off the zanax my regular doctors gave me for anxiety.

I am so fearful that the paxil won't work because I never heard of that before, but then I wasn't depressed like this either. I see here that some of you are on Paxil for this and it comforts me, that it works.
I seem to get them when I first get up and through out the day something fierce. I feel I am starting to avoid going places for fear of having them.
I don't remember them being this bad or so often 16 years ago. I think this is more depressing then not finding work to me.
Well that is a little about my situatuion and I wanted to say Hello.
