<p>It’s not so long since I was in your daughter’s exact position.</p>
<p>Medication is very much a case of trial and error - it is very unlikely that the first one she tries will be the one that works. They all function differently for different people and if you’re serious about trying, you both must accept that it will take time. Medication is not a miracle cure for any kind of mental illness and it is a commitment. I’m now trying my third (Mirtazapine) after failed attempts with Fluoxetine and Sertraline.</p>
<p>Counselling or therapy will likely be recommended in combination with medication. I’m currently trying cognitive behavioral therapy, which might be useful for your daughter if she can identify any triggers of her anxiety/panic attacks. Again, it depends on the individual and what works for one will not work for all.</p>
<p>I wish you and your daughter the best of luck. I know how difficult this can be and I truly hope that she can find a solution that works for her.</p>
