About Me
I'm a stay at home mom, I have been married 23 years to my wonderful husband. I have a 22 yr old son who just finished his senior year of college, and didn't graduate and is going another semester and a 16 year old son that just finished his sophomore year of high school. I have two stepkids ages 29 and 26, who live in another state... I do volunteer work at my son's high school... I have been having panic attacks and anxiety for the last year and a half and am trying to learn how to deal with it and get my life back...
Interests
Mainly my family ofcourse! I love to watch my younger son play lacrosse and I really really love football, both college and professional.(some of my friends here would call me OBSESSED...) I like to read and I watch too many reality tv shows! I hope that I can support my friends here like they do me...... we are all in this together.......

Close Anxiety
I have been having anxiety and panic attacks for the last year and a half..... I was diagnosed with Panic Disorder in May 2007.... I went through a few months where I didn't leave the house and had a terrible time dealing with this.. I joined this site to have support from people who understand what I go through and to get support and hopefully help others too...I now have been here for a year, and my friends here have helped me more than anything..... great support here........
Treatments
- Lexapro Working / Worked
- gave up on it after a few days, the side effects were horrible, but I'm thinking about giving it another try......
- Paxil Not Working
- took paxil for 2 weeks and the anxiety got much worse, so i stopped taking it
- Positive Thinking Working / Worked
- I'm trying.... I'm trying....... I know it's important...
- Xanax Working / Worked
- I think it is very helpful. I take .25 mg when I start to feel anxious, right now am using on an as needed basis
Close Panic Attacks
I was diagnosed the first of May last year with Panic disorder. I had my first severe panick attack in August 2006, but really didn't have another one until March. I started having them more frequently through April, several times a week and pretty much stayed at home or made a plan of what to do if I left the house incase I had an attack. It was a horrible feeling. My family has been very supportive. I feel like I am better but I am joining this site because we all can understand what it's like
