Hey everyone, I have been using this site for a while to gain some knowledge on what is happening to me. I have always been somewhat anxiety but the panic attacks and sever health anxiety started when my friend (who was 27) passed away from a pulmonary anabolism embolism in 2015. That shook me real bad. I thought I had heart problems, a brain tumor, and even cancer all in a short time. Those of you who live with anxiety know it's real to us, so its feels like we are living with the actually problems we perceive we have. After EKG's, a Echo, and a CT scan of my head. Everything was normal. My doctor has tried me on propranolol, Buspar ( which I don't think I gave it a good enough chance), and most recently Wellbutrin. The wellbutrin has made me worse than I have been in a while I think. The propranolol works but keeps me from losing weight so I am kind of stuck. Any recommendations from people who have tried these meds? I probably will stay on he propranolol because I have clinicals starting and don't want to be playing around with different medications until I have a break from school.
