    • Close Anxiety

      well all my life i have had panic attacks,but i never knew they were panic attacks until 2002 when i was in a truck explosion at work. since then ive been diagnose with severe agorophobia, which causes alot of depression and anxiety. at one point i had a psychologist come out to my home and i got on xanax,clonopin, and anti-depressant that got me feeling a whole lot better, but about a year ago he retired and a new dr. took my meds(xanax) awayand now i have spiraled back into agorophobia

      Treatments

      Breathing Exercises Working / Worked
      helps relieve stress and works good sometimes when i really gain focus
      BuSpar Somewhat Helpful
      it is what im on now and i cant really tell if it is working good or not
      Klonopin Working / Worked
      i have taking up to 1mg and at that time along with the xanax i felt alot better
      Lexapro Somewhat Helpful
      was on a few years it was alot better than paxil
      Meditation Too Soon to Tell
      just started yoga i can see it helping when i gain more consciousness
      Paxil Not Working
      didnt work caused more anxiety, too many side affects
      Positive Thinking Working / Worked
      when i can gain peace from the daily stresses it helps me gain more relaxation
      Xanax Working / Worked
      worked great but was takin off by my psychologist due to abuse in the state i live in
