I've heard by professionals in the field of anxiety disorders that the best approach is pharmacology taken with couselling. Successful treatment increases to upwards of
80% than with drugs alone. Normally a medication from the antidepressant family is prescribed such as Paxil. But again, the most effective treatment is realized in conjunction with some sort of cognitive behavioural therapy. Your doctor should be able to help guide you to such resources. Many communities offer group therapy where you can learn from others with your affliction and how they cope in a supportive atmosphere. Hopefully I've demonstrated that drugs are only part of the long term solution.
