I am new to this forum so please forgive me for any mistakes. I have been dealing with panic and anxiety for many years. It started when I was 13 and has been with me since. I have tried different doctor's, therapist's, herbs and medications. Some seem to work better than others. Right now my doctor took me off paxil and put me on lexapro. She decreased my paxil and increased my lexapro. So I have been on lexapro for two weeks and she upped my doagse on Wednesday to lexapro 20 mg. I am feeling less anxious but there are times when I need a xanax or ativan. The doc told me it would take some time for it to really kick in to stop this anxiety. I am finding it still difficult to leave anywhere to far from my home. I am just wondering how others are cooping. Thanks!
