I am in my final year of college. Growing up I always had problems with depression but during my sophomore year of college I began to see a psychiatrist and take Lexapro-- which (in addition to therapy) greatly helped me get over my depression problem.

However this year, my final year of school, I started having severe panic attacks/agoraphobia.

I really never have had this problem (to this extent until now).

I skip pretty much most of my classes at school, just because I am afraid to talk to people and I'm afraid everyone thinks I'm nuts or just lazy.

My psychiatrist has put me on klonopin 3 times a day (in addition to my lexapro); and he thinks that I should switch to zoloft.

I really don't know what to do. Personally I would just like to find happiness and graduate; it's hard though because conquering my fears is very scary-- but I know that I can't continue to live the way that I am. I guess I am just looking for moral support...
