I may suffer from some sort of anxiety/panic disorder. i am a law student and don't want a benzodiazapine because of the horror stories. any thoughts?

Anxiety: Mental health counseling can help as can non benzo anti anxiety meds. I see you are already taking bupropion. It may be possible to add another med to this.
