I am a 25 year old male. I have been on medication for panic disorder and depression for 3 and 1/2 years. I had my first episode in college when my gf and I started to discuss marriage.Within two weeks we went talking about marriage to not being together at all.
I have had about 4 or 5 episodes that have caused me to have attacks. The current trigger was related to looking for a job. I live in ohio and I was looking for jobs in arizona. I talked to a high school and then I started to have the attacks... It started as nerves and builds and then I started crying and about hyperventalating. I have since had minor episodes usually between rising in the morning and 3 pm. After that the episodes to seem to not be as bad. I do however still not feel like myself. I feel kind of hollow and kind of absent of some feelings. It is difficult to look for jobs. I don't feel like I can look for a relationship.
Can the program help me?
I am taking zoloft and xanex. I take the zoloft everyday and the xanex as needed which has been more since I have had teh attacks again.
Any tips or comments are appreciated
