Anxiety Medication

After a very severe Flair up that landed me in the hospital about a year ago; Every time a got short of breath panic and anxiety would overwhelm me and make it 100X worse .
It got so bad that I was afraid to leave the house or even go from Room to room without my phone in case I needed to call an ambulance .
Last week I started an Anti Anxiety medication that I hope will help.
So Im just curious if anyone else has had a similar experience and if Medication helped.
