I have tried Celexa, Paxil, Zoloft, Moclobemide, Seroquel, valproate, lithium, Buspar, nefazodone, benzodiazepines, amytriptiline (sp?)and Effexor. I may be forgetting one or two. I've had this problem for a few years but it comes and goes. The medications never lasted very long though. They make me feel very unlike myself so I don't like to take them. CBT has worked before. I am functional, basically, but going to work is getting difficult. There is lots of stress there and I am tending to go and hide somewhere while while I get my paperwork done. I go to work still but having lots of people around me asking me questions or giving me things to do brings the panic on (I am in administrative support). I think I must learn to cope with different levels of stress better.
You seem to know something about panic and anxiety so I will ask: What do you think of meditation?sg
