In reply to Severe Panic and Anxiety disorder anyone like me?, posted by PanickingJake on July 27, 2004, at 22:00:30
Jake, sorry for your extreme situation. If you are taking the meds you're taking and are still experiencing all the symptoms you describe - methinks a rethink on your treatment plan is in order. I had garden variety "anxiety disorder" (trying to separate GAD vs. SAD was moot, as I had it all) to include panic and agoraphobia. Klonopin saved me after other failed drug trials, most of which increased my anxiety states tenfold. CBT was useful info but didn't work well in the real world for me. Klonopin taming my spun up, overworked "flight or fight" response was the only thing that worked.
Is the constant anxiety/panic h*ll your only disorder or do you have other diagnoses?
