Hey Tucey,
What kind of things have you tried other than Xanax?
I'm putting together a blog website trying to look at some of the things that might help. You might find some help there.
All the best

I have only tried Xanax. It was suggested to find something else, but it's the only thing I have been prescribed. I also use deep breathing and taking time to go outside and away from people. I also lock myself in the bathrooms, or just leave all together. I also have a site.

I do a lot of my shopping online,from stores that I can go and return them to if needed.most of them offer free delivery if you spend over 50.Which is easy to do.I all so choose the days and times I go to the store because I will get myself in a panic when its over crowded.I have been known to leave before my shopping is done.
