Welcome April Marie. What a pretty name! Have you taken the Anxiety test? The results may help your doctor in finding the right med for you. It was designed just for that reason. Don't hesitate to print out the results and take it to him on your next appointment. Welcome to the site and to the group!

Hi, and I am so sorry about your friend. yes, it is so sad teat he did not get to live a short time, but I believe that there is a master plan for each of us. Sometimes we do not understand why these things happen, but it is said that we are not to question, That it is our destiny, our fate. I still think about my accident, and why that happened to me, so do not feel bad that you think this way, It is a normal thing to question things we do not understand. I know there are many drugs on the market today, that are being used for panic disorder and anxiety. I think a search of some of the sites and a diecussion with your doctor would help you, especially right now, while you are grieving for your friend. It is important that he/she know about this, as there is help available now. I hope that you have some solace for your troubles now, and you will be in my prayers. Take care of yourself, ,and please try to eat..that is very important. When I get upset, I cannot eat, and so I drink Ensure. ZAt least I am getting my nutrition. You van but it in Wal-Mart or the grocery and drug stores. Please let me know how you are doing.I care about you. Red

.I had to stop taking the paxil. I would not eat on it and to me eatting is what I need to do so I want be weak. Maybe we can try something else. I do take ativan when I feel an attack come on. Last night was the worse for me in awhile. My friend died from cancer. He found out he had it 3 weeks ago and there was nothing they could do. He was only 33 not married or any kids. I feel that he did not get to live his life to the fullest. This time last year we were at my b'day party and everyone seemed so happy and having so much fun. Now look a year later and he is dead. I know I suffer from panic,but everyday I thank God for me to have one more day to live. Life is to short. I just hope he gives me many more days. Somehow someway I will fight this panic disorder.

Hi, april, I know plenty of people on Paxil, and know a lot, too, who could not take that particular durg. I for one, could not take it. I treid so many of the newer dugs for this out today, and none seemed to work well for me. The xanax helped for the short term, that is to stop the attact in the evry beginning, and I ended up on Prozac, which worked the best fo me. I am not a doctor and do not know all the ide effects of this drug, but you could do a search on the Internet, thru Google or DogPile, and the results should give you some places to look for that particular information. There is lota out there. Good luckwith your search..and please let us know what you have found. Red
