His never had a fear of going out. But yes, he had a fear of eating solid food. That lasted a week and since his anti-psy med is Zyprexa, a drug which stimulates the appetite, it probably might have lasted longer if he hadn't been taking that. However his anti panic drug at that time was Klonopin. I really don't think the Klonopin helped all that much The Doc at the crisis center put him on Zoloft 50mg. After 2 weeks it helped a little, but until the dose was upped to 100mg the improvement wasn't that noticeable. Just yesterday he played the computer game "Half-Life" for 2 hours. A month ago he couldn't play this at all without fear of panic attack. He can also watch TV shows that were making him anxious back then. In short, the Larger dose of Zoloft has helped a lot but I recommend you proceed with caution and monitor your progress carefully. He has been on Zoloft for 3 weeks plus a few days.
