try your medicine! dont be afraid to take it. Lexapro is one of the safer, symptom free anxiety medications. it could be a life saver for you! i really hope you feel better soon! when i am really panicking, i like to sit next to the shower with the water running and try to relax. water bill is high, but only thing that helps lol!
