Dr. Pamela Pappas answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

See psychiatrist: For the best start at evaluating and treating depression and panic, see a psychiatrist who can explore with you what's happening and help you create a treatment plan. Your primary care doctor also needs to be involved to review your overall health -- making sure no other medical causes are causing or worsening problems.
