Answers:

My heart goes out to you, Mike. People don't understand that there's anxiety, bad anxiety, and what you're going through. You probably feel like you're had the ground pulled out from under you.

First thing: Don't make it worse. Do not resort to street drugs or alcohol. What you have is a recognized disorder that can be cured.

Find a mental health professional who specializes in anxiety and panic attacks. There are other drugs that may be taken in combination with anti-depressants. Discuss that possibility with a psychiatrist.

Whatever you do, Mike, don't give up.
