I finally had some normalcy past few days. I finally got the help I needed. I’m taking 50mg of Zoloft and 1/2 15mg tablet of Matazipine at night. I left the house finally this weekend (with my boyfriend driving) and went to the outdoor mall and some other stores I even made it to brunch. I still had some anxious feelings a few times but not a panic attack. Now I need to get back comfortable driving. Any techniques help anyone?

Start with short trip where there's little traffic, even if it's just driving around the block a few times. I go to a local 7-11. Use a GPS & keep trying a bit longer trips......

Gad to hear you are doing so much better!!! Yes, start with small trips driving around the block and try to keep going further. I know how you feel!!
