I had the most debilitating panic attacks! I started getting them at 23 yrs old. Beforehand, I didn't even know there was such a thing!

My doctor has put me on this medication and also prozac for my depression and anxiety. This one is basicly just for my panic attackas and to help me sleep at night, but it works wonders. It's nice to be able to go through a day without out being a spaz about everthing. Highly recomended if you you have panic attacks.

I have panic disorder and have been taking this drug for one month now. its effectiveness is wounderful compared to other medicines I have tried. My panic attacks are actually more under control just because I know I have my medicine in my purse!
