Hey Catgirl-
Meow. I took Buspar. It didn't do much at all for my panic attacks. Mostly made me crabby and irritable. I have had some major attacks that have been very debiliatating too. So I know what your talking about totally. My Dr put me on Lexapro and it was such a great thing for me. I've been on it for about 6 months. It's helped decrease my depression. Helped boost my mood. And my panic attacks are few and far between.
I understand what your talking about being scared about the meds switch. But you shouldn't worry. Your Dr has given you xanax which is great for panic attacks. It really takes care of them for me in no time at all. I think this has been one of the best reliefs for me so far. Have you been diagnosed with anything yet? Like Bipolar or GAD's? I did a lot of research on the internet after I was diagnosed with Bipolar II. That also helped me understand a lot of what was going on with my body and mind. It really validated what I was feeling. It also helped me to educate people around me. A lot of my family just thought I was being a drama queen. My Dr currently has me on Wellbutrin 300mg Lexapro 20mg Xanax as needed Trileptal 600mg. The combination has been great. You may find that for panic attacks a combination of things helps a lot. If you have any other questions definitely come to this site. It has helped me with a lot of my questions. Good luck to you.
