> Been reading alot today. Have been trying to find a med that is directly geared toward anxiety and panic disorder. I always have severe reactions to ssri's and I'm thinking its because I'm not depressed. Maybe those particular chemicals in my brain do not need adjusting. This whole anxiety/panic/agoraphobia didn't hit me until about a year and a half ago. This is not something I have been struggling with for years and years.

> The only thing I need is help with these awful anxieties and panic. This constant fear that I feel, I am always in flight or fright mode.

> My body seems to have a very low tolerance to meds. (I can't even take pain pills)
