Re: help - no meds working for Panic Disorder

Hey Jackster,

I can really empathize with you. I have been suffering from Panic Disorder and depressison for at least 10 years now. After many attempts with meds, I finally found my fix. Klonopin along with Paxil. You'll have to figure out the dosage yourself...it's different for everyone. I prefer Klonopin over Xanax, 'cause Klonopin has a longer half life...it last longer.

Good luck, no one should have to suffer from Panic or Depression. As I'm sure you know, untreated it can debilitate your life.

> I was on 40mg of Paxil for 3 years for Panic attacks. When I stopped and started it again - it was no longer effective. Since then I have tried Celexa (got a rash), Imipramine, Prozac & now Zoloft without much success. Both the Prozac & Zoloft seemed to increase my panic attacks (presumably because they are activating SSRI's). I have been on Zoloft 50mg for 2 months and have now gone up to 75mg. It doesn't seemed to have helped - although I realise the dosage may not be high enough. Every time I up the dosage I get worse panic attacks. (and it's costing me a lot of money). Can anyone recommend whether I should continue with the Zoloft or if there is another medication I should try?
