Panic and ptsd

hello i been seeing a behavioral health cons. for about 2 months says i have chronic ptsd and panic disorder with agoraphobia . i honestly think these sessions are a waste of time . my reg doc has me on 10mg of atarax 3xs day as needed for anxiety but all it does is makes me sleep. anyone have this and what do u do? did u do to help

i too have had cbt for anxiety, agoraphobia, social exclusion etc and cannot take anti deps they make the anxiety worse. doc has left me on diazepam, ihate it but need it, he says its low dose. i wish there was a way of not needing these meds too.
