"i started having panic attacks after a bad break up and tried everything on the market. my day was virtually one attack after another and i was at my wits end! i was so desperate that i even tried hypnosis. i had to change doctors for insurance purposes and in the initial visit he suggested brintellix. i was very skeptical since i had tried so many. i figured i&#039;d be taking xanax forever. that was well over a year ago and brintellix has changed my life! my insurance did not initially cover the medication but my doctor submitted an appeal and it was approved. he also gave me a coupon from the manufacturer and my copay is $25. a small price to pay for a anxiety free life!!!"
