Thanks for the excellent question. Let me try to give you as complete an answer as I can. Anxiety and depression march hand in hand quite often. After suffering a life trauma (as you did) one can develop anxiety, depression, or both. These are treatable, and sometimes, though not always, curable. Medication and psychotherapy will help with your panic and anxiety symptoms. Seek out a mental health professional (a psychiatrist is best) as soon as possible. Best of luck and good health to you. I hope I helped orient you a bit. -J. Clive Spiegel MD
