I have MDD, PD, some PTSD but I thought this was getting better. This is Monday, this past Saturday I almost went to my knees in Kroger with panic. I just wanted to cry. I had been using every coping mechanism I know. Deep breathing, Positive thoughts, quoting Scripture. I was trying everything.

I don't know what's going on but something is. Any help would be appreciated. Meds are Lexapro 20 mg, Lorazepam 1 mg twice daily, Gabapentin 400 mg twice daily (neuropathy but has mood stabilizing benefits as well). I guess that's it for mind meds. Metformin for diabetes 500 twice daily.

I use my GP as Pdocs are few and far between where I live. Plus $$$.
Thank You for any comments. Yak
