One of my worst days EVER

She's always had a slight anxiety issue through her entire life. In fact, every female in her family suffers from it, most much worse. Both the medical doctor and her psychiatrist agree what is 99.9% of the issue right now is menopause. Through her life, she's been able to control it because of the strength she has. But, with her hormones going nuts now, it's much easier for the anxiety to rear it's head. When she has them, they're honestly for no reason - they just happen. Both doctors said that it's a very normal thing to happen as women go through the change of life.
Again, glad to hear she's doing well!

She's doing much better. After 5 days worth of meds running through her system, she can already feel a change in things (in a good way). She is still having panic attacks, but they're getting much less intense as well as fewer. I just got off the phone with her and she said she only had 1 very minor one today.
The only downside we're seeing though is that about 1/2hr after she takes the pill, she's literally stoned. It makes for some interesting conversations. That just started last night. Luckily, she takes her pill just before bed and feels fine in the morning. She goes to see the doctor at the end of next week, so that'll definitely be brought up to see if it's normal.
