so i have been having a hard time with things. Been hard keeping my mind on working when im having those damn attacks.
Im having troubles keeping the rent up too in this bad period. I'm 19 and live by myself so i dont have someone to split the rent with.
the doctor said CIPRAMIL may be helpful for the GAD he also mentioned XANAX (if anyone has used them please let me know how they did) also talked about Behavioral Cognative Therapy
I would appreciate if anyone could give anything to help me out i dont care if its 5 dollars to help with my rent or just some advice on the matter if you have had this problem in the past.
my icq is 261416544 if you can talk
thanks

First of all - don't start on some meds. Its almost always some bullshit that doesn't solve the problem, just covers it up and gives you something else instead (i.e. hair tonic that gets you the girl, but makes you flacid when you get to do something with her).
Second - My uncle had a HORRIBLE time with panic problems. But it just turned out there were elements in his life that he hated. He wasn't coming to terms with them on a conscience level and it started to effect him physically.
For him it was his wife & her bullshit and his job & his bullshit. Got rid of them both and got back to basics (i.e. what makes him happy). Panic attacks to a dramatic nosedive until they ceased all together - that was over 8 years ago.
I'd suggest you really look at the a full breadth of your situation physically, emotionally, financially, mentally and how each of those elements interact. Its easier typed than done, but make your state of mind a decision. Understand what is happening around you when you're smiling and strive for it.
