Original Message Someone very close to me has a daughter who has recently been diagnosed with panic attacks.

She is 14 yrs. old and these started this past July. They started out mimicking asthma attacks, or heat exhaustion. They've gotten progressively worse. Now, she gets them a couple of times a day. She begins by saying she feels funny, then progresses into collapsing onto the ground, screaming hysterically, clawing at the grass, (if she's outside), dry-heaving, and blacking out with little memory of the episode. The attacks last for about a quarter of an hour.

The docs are treating this as panic attack, (they did an EEG to rule out epilepsy). They've had her on low-dose Clonepan (sp?) for a couple of weeks along with Lexapro. They've just raised the dose of the Clonepan.

Does anyone have experience with this, or any good advice or input?
