> I've been down this road before- and felt the same way. However felt if a pill was created that could help balance me out and have a better quality of life then why not give it a try. However I did try therapy and self help options before the pills. So there's my opinion ;-)

> Don't read my other posts right now though, I don't want them to scare you away. I'm just very inpatient in waiting for change :-)i dont have the time or patience for therapy right now. i have three kids under 5 years - i feel this is primarily hormonal - not emotional or whatever...have been to tons of therapy in past - years ago- to deal w. stuff - feel like things have been addressed - even have tools - but alas - effed up I AM!!!....i just want it(anxiety/panic) to go away. the admission that i cannot deal ON MY OWN is huge for me - i am a CONTROL freak - so even saying i need help by going to OB for ?drugs? is big time for me- -
what the hell is going on -am i crazy now? all of the sudden am i so freaking weak and crazy that i now need brain altering drugs (no offense to those on drugs AT ALL - just having a hard time w/ it for ME...i usually can control EVERYTHING, this is a hard blow for me) and so SCARED of SSRI route - maybe should find ANYONE i can, to work me in tom. that is NOT an OB that can discuss and maybe give me smthg not so committal - like more as needed or not so brain altering???
WTF am i to do? a week ago today i wasnt considering drugs - and today i am on them.
