I just joined a couple days ago. I'm working my way through the sessions slowly. I have had severe panic/anxiety disorder for several years yet it seems to cycle. I seem to get things under control for a while, then bam!!One day sitting at my desk at work it all comes rushing back. I have my first ever visit with a psychiatrist on the 5th. My family doc says he really doesn't know enough about the meds to help me further. I've been on several with bad side effects so now I am afraid to try anything new. I'm only on lorazepam right now. Hoping to find some friends here that understand how real this is.
