Severe Anxiety
Hello. I've been suffering from severe insomnia (ended me up in the Psych Ward for a week), but now I have 400mg Seroquel and 100mg Trazadome, and that has done wonders for my sleeping problems. However, three years ago I had a traumatic event that now I have severe anxiety (particularly on planes and automobiles). It's so bad that I've been fired from work and failed semesters of school. Docs tried 3-4 different SSRIs, but the only thing that has helped is judiciously taking Benzos. I need help

Medication will only help address symptoms & not the root cause. You seem to have PTSD. Please see a psychologist to help you deal with the trauma, which seems to be the underlying cause of all your issues.
