My husband just came to me after yet another panic attack asking me to get help - something he has not ever done in our 16 years together. I was diagnosed with a panic disorder, ADD, and clinical depression from my primary care doctor a long time ago. I’ve never sought help from a psychiatrist or therapist, although there were a few times I begged my mom to take me as a child. I get a prescription of Xanax about once a year to take as needed, but I get anxiety about taking it (3 out of 4 of my grandparents are heavily addicted to it). I’ve been in a really bad place lately and know I need to do something about it for the sake of my two young girls.  I’m trying to look for appointments &amp; don’t know where to go or how to start. Does anyone have any tips or recommendations? Do I start with therapy or a psychiatrist?
