I have just started in the past 4 months beginning experiencing panic attacks. I have two children and I was a college student until the panic attacks. I didn't attend college this semester because I can't get in my car without a painc attack. I had a severe one at school and I thought that my life was over that I was having a heart attack. The panic attack was so severe that I was shaking all over and couldn't control it. Several of my family members suffer from extreme panic attacks and anxiety like I do, but they are so bad that they can't barely leave the house. I can at least go to the store but I can't get very far from home. I am on .50mg of xanax and 75mg of Effexor. I have never been afraid of anything until now and it more annoying to me than fearful. I get so frustrated because it's not like a cold you can just get over or shake off. I do have one comfort in the whole mess. That I am definately not the only one experiencing this nightmare.
