[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How often are the panic attacks? If often and the PTSD is pretty bad, I would recommend Lamictal. A lot of doctors will go to SSRI’s but in my opinion unless they are extremely anxious or extremely depressed, the side effects and how long they take to titre up in your system don’t make them worth it for panics attacks/PTSD. Lamictal is a mood stabilizer and is very mild. You have to start with a low dose and move up every week to a slightly increased dose to prevent the side effect of rash. But when I tell you that medication can do wonders with no side effects like weight gain, nausea, sweats, etc… My daughter took it for anxiety/PTSD and it was amazing. Once a day at bedtime. I could see changes within 7-10 days even with a low dose. [/quote] Thanks! That isn’t a med his psychiatrist has suggested. I will ask.[/quote]
