    About Me

    Right before my 29th birthday I had my first panic attack ever. This was extremely scary, and I thought I was dying. The thought of death triggered many many dark thoughts that I never had before the attack and the meds. I am currently med-free (since June) and trying to deal with the after effects of the dark thoughts. God bless everyone who needs support!

      Hi Kelly, Good that you can get by w/o any meds,but it's not such a bad thing to need them (unless you're pregnant or trying to become pregnant). I know I'm NOT. Stay happy and be well.

    • Good Luck

      From laniescherr July 25

      Hope you are feeling well and that you have a great weekend. So how are you doing without taking any meds? That's great if you can do it.

      Treatments

      Crying Working / Worked
      If I can cry 5 minutes a day I feel MUCH better!
      Effexor Somewhat Helpful
      I think this made my anxiety worse because I was anxious to take the med due to side effects and obsessed about them(seratonin syndrome, suicidal thoughts)
      Celexa Not Working
      This was the most horrible moment in my life. Took me to dark places I had NEVER thought about before. I am still recovering from thoughts I had while on this med.
      Prayer Working / Worked
      Talk to yourself or god for 10 minutes out loud a day. It helps.
      Ativan Working / Worked
      When panic starts, this helps within 5 minutes. DO NOT ABUSE.
      Klonopin Working / Worked
      Worked very well, and started to take this not only for panic, but for sleep. This depressed my system. I do not recomend this unless you are having a severe panic attack.
