Guest guest Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 > HI JAMES: Gee, thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words to me. Even my own family doesn't compliment me with such nice words most of the time. 30 years ago when I first started the panic attacks, the feeling of impending doom and fear of dying right there in my tracks was devastating. I have been on xanax and paxil ever since and without those meds, I would just be at home all the time. They have given me the chance to become stronger and count more on prayer and also of me, myself and I to come out of the surge of fear overwhelming me. Since I have been on those meds, they have found that I had a horrible chemical imbalance which triggered the attacks and also realizing what a horrible marriage I had at the time. I can go anywhere and do anything and drive anywhere too with these meds. I take very very low amounts of them. Actually the lowest they give. The devastation of our son leaving home 30 yrs ago and for 15 yrs, didn't know if he was either dead or alive was also a contributing factor with the anxiety. Then I got the breast cancer, at that time my son told me along with my ex, that they didn't want to ever see me again. My husband left me because of his womanizing and 27 years I guess was all he could handle in his head. My son has some mental problems as it runs on Mom's side of the family. She was in and out of institutions for years with electric shock treatments, etc. and used to beat me when I was a child a lot. Anyhow, the xanax and paxil are very very mild, like I said, and do give me the balance I need to proceed with this life. God has blessed me with a wonderful daughter who is above average on the compassionate and loving and caring side. She is always there for me and always will be, just her nature. Praise the Lord!
