Panic Disorder

6

I’ve developed a severe panic disorder (lots of panic attacks and general anxiety) over the past couple months that seems unusual to me. I’m seeking therapy for it and the medication I’ve been put on for it, Xanax, hasn’t been helping me. I’m considering taking an SSRI the doctor recommends but I don’t know if it will help either. Does this stuff typically go away on it’s own or am I just stuck with this?

    I was curious about this. I have been recently diagnosed with Anxiety Disorder and I think I have been also diagnosed with Panic Disorder, but I am not sure. How many panic attacks does someone have to have to be diagnosed with Panic Disorder?

      Can anyone tell me why is it that you work so hard to get over a panic disorder only for the panic attacks to start all over again out of the blue? I developed a panic disorder when I was 20 years old. I was having anxiety attacks constantly; over everything. I worked really hard and managed to live a somewhat normal existence after about three years ( having an attack Only about every six months or so) and stayed that way until very recently. I am 35 now and I’ve started the attacks daily again over simple things: like driving three miles to work or when the wind blows or for no reason what so ever. Should I go back on the meds that I have done without for five years. I know I am rambling, but I am so tired inside of not being able to control this fear of fear that I have going on.
