@pjss48: I’m 73 and have been posting for some time about my issues with anxiety. I recently started on Lexapro - 10 mg - and I do feel better. But I still occasionally get spells of sudden-onset anxiety and nausea lasting about a minute. I’m a type A personality and truly believe that catches up with you in later years. I have much more trouble handling stress than I did a decade or two ago.
So I take my Lexapro and try to remember these attacks likely won’t kill me. I deep breathe and turn my thoughts to a peaceful place. I empathize with you and want you to know you are not alone.
