Follow-Up:
Dear Julie :-) I can relate very well to your experience with panic attacks. Mine was accompanied by Post Traumatic Stress Disorder which is horrific. I would recommend an excellent medication that may help you with that condition since it sounds like it's been very debilitating for you. Ask your doctor about Effexor because I think it might help you. It does have a very sedating effect sometimes but that's a whole lot better than having the panic attacks. Julie, you will be ok. You are only 18....you have your whole life ahead of you. And with the proper medication, you will be able to live a happy productive life. Best Wishes. Huggs from Kayla :-)
