Yes...I was taking Lexipro which seemed to help but weened myself off of it. I now take Klonopin every once and awhile but not often (even though the doc said 2 a day I might do 1 per week)...it had alot to do with my job and taking problems home...I don't do that anymore...I have a cigar and a stiff drink most every night and that helps to put all anxiety away for the most part. I inherited it as well from my mother, anxiety and panic attacks...I have learned to say "**** it all" and get on with the more important things in life to me (wife and kids). My wife is on the brink now with her work and not sleeping well...Told her she has to leave that crap at work and not bring it home....taking the family away for a week and leaving the Blackberry at home...you gotta learn to relax and enjoy life b/c stress WILL kill you! Life is too short to worry about stupid **** (economy, job, who is in office, etc). Exercise also helps...go to the park...get lost in the woods for awhile. Hope this helps!
