      I deal with it on a day to day basis also. I think genes also play a role in it. My mom has anxiety, she's not diagnosed with it but I can tell. I see the dr on wednesday, so I will talk to him about all of this then. I know it will be okay. I just have to trust in God and he will help me and everyone else through this.

      Thanks for your friendship and kindness. It is really hard. 4 years ago when I was pregnant with my son and awhile before that, I was on Lexapro and it worked wonders on my panic and anxiety. I guess it's not as good the second time around. I guess tomorrow I'm going to ask the dr. if I can try celexa. I was doing very well with my coping skills until I had that panic attacks that I had to go to the hospital for. That one was the worst I've ever had and I felt like there was nothing I could do about it. I have been suffereing with this condition for the last 5 years. It's a hard thing to live with. But there are conditions that are worse. My councelor reminds me anxiety and panic are just feelings. They sure don't feel like it. How could a feeling feel so horrible!?

      From greenbutterflyjm February 1

      Thanks for the friend request. My anxiety has been really bad lately. I just wish I could have instant relief. The klonopin isn't enough. Right now I am on Lexapro and I just got off of effexor and it's been really hard. I think I need something different. I am so afraid though because I had to go to the hospital for the worst panic attack of my life when I was getting off the effexor and I'm really scared that will happen again. I am here for you.

    • Close Anxiety

      I had my first panic attack in a movie theater almost a year ago from today. Rushed to the hospital because I didn't know what was going on and they thought that I had SVT.  Went to a Cardiologist and confirmed that I didn't have SVT that it was panic and anxiety/fight or flight basically.  Since then I have been to the ER several times, had multiple EKGs, and have worried that something is wrong with me.
