That's right. The reason that drugs like Paxil etc work for panic attacks is because they supply the chemical (serotonin) or otherwise alter your body's way of handling serotonin so that you aren't as liable to have the chemical imbalance that causes panic attacks.

It's no different than a diabetic taking insulin, and it doesn't mean you're weak or crazy or anything. It just means your body is lacking that specific chemical.

(Oh, and the misspelling up there cracked me up! "Exorcise" -- I actually had a Holy Roller relative of mine suggest that I was possessed and just needed an exorcism to fix me and make me stop being so crazy...)
