Suzy,

By all means, you should give her a full picture of your situation, anxiety etc. included. She needs to have as complete an idea as possible of what you are going through. But her specific role is as a bereavement counselor for those grieving. For everyone who is grieving, there is always a unique set of symptoms and additional factors, so she is used to knowing about depression and anxiety and stress (For example, she was more familiar with Effexor than I was because she'd worked with other people who had taken it) and I hope will be able to help you get some new ideas on how to see what role the grieving itself might be playing in your total stresses, plus she may have some connections of people to direct you too in terms of someone like a pdoc who can also prescribe medicine (which of course she can't do)...

Let her know about the panic attacks and anything you can about what seems to bring them on, etc.

Of course, until you talk with her, it's hard to know just how much help this will be, but i'm glad to know you are receptive to the idea and I will be rooting for it to be a good source for you and she has been for me as well.

She may encourage you to come to a group meeting with others going through bereavement and I have found that to be very helpful too -- just as we help each other here in, at very least, realizing that we are not alone in what we are experiencing...

wishing you good luck with this, Suzy!

besos,
zinya

> Zinya, you have to be from another planet!!! I don't recall anyone helping me in a long, long, time, thanks a lot for all the work you took to find me this Mrs. Paula, I will call her, I can drive to Beverly Hills and see some handsome guys over there =)(just kidding)
> This is just for grieving you said? I should not mention anything about my anxiety and panic attacks? Just to be sure and don't make mistakes.
> By the way I'll will try to see if this Dr is consulting today, I tell you guys later how everything went.
> ***Thanks again Zinya*****
