Doctors don't like to use Benzo's in agoraphobia treatment

 has been my experience that psychiatrists don't like to use benzo's in the treatment of agoraphobia. And I find that it is the only thing that helps me. I have tried over 18 different SSIR's over a 12 year period. I understand the cognitive and behavioral side of this therapy and have used the tools taught to me but yet still have panic attacks for no reason that I can figure out.

I'm taking 1mg clonazapam twice a day and Xanax 1 mg 4 times a day "prn". Ive had this for 17 years now and want to know if there is anything else I can try . They have put ne on bi-polar meds and they didn't work either. The only thing that helps is the Benzo's that I'm taking but yet have a hard time find a THERAPIST that will prescribe them.


I am Agoraphobic !
