Hi everyone! I've had anxiety for about 9 years. This looks like a great place to talk to share thoughts related to anxiety. 8)

Nine Years? How have you coped?

I had my first panic attack about 37 yrs old. Then I became very normal again, no attacks, then 1 and half years ago, the panic started bad at age 48! Had to go on meds, then bec. of another problem of migraines, went off the meds. I use ativan when my throat starts tightening or if I get dizzy spells or weakness. I think it's time to get back on a SSRI's again and see a therapist.

I just takes too much out of me these days. ;(

Nice to meet you.
