Just Diagnosed. A few questions.

Postby PlayCrackTheSky » Thu Apr 05, 2012 12:18 pm

I have been recently diagnosed by a mental health professional and I have panic disorder with agoraphobia. I used to think I had APD. I have been put on beta blockers and benzos and they have been life changing but thats not saying much (I left the house, shook a strangers hand, dont feel like Im having a heart attack and even got a hug for the first time in months! /somewhat sarcastic)

1) What medications are you on? If any?
2)Can you apply for disability if you have panic disorder and agoraphobia? If so, how hard is it to prove?

Thank you.

Hi, PlayCrackTheSky! I think your doctor will have to tell you if you can apply for disability, as it probably depends on where you live.
Congratulations for doing better since you've been on the meds!
