To be more accurate, Ambien relaxes your brain to the point where rebound effects may occur and those rebound effects can be in the form of panic attacks. This is seen much more prevalent in people taking Ambien with alcohol or people taking Ambien (Zolpidem) for periods longer than 6 months. Despite the ambitious proposal of stopping Ambien "Cold Turkey" start using progressively smaller doses. This may include using a very small dose more than once a day to help fight against rebound effects. Matt Curley, Pharm D. MSCIS

Who is the first person to diagnose panic disorder?

Who was the first to discover panic disorder?? Well, your question is not very clear. Do you mean who is the first person to actually diagnose and give the name 'panic disorder' to this condition? or do you mean who was the first person to actually 'develop' panic disorder?? Panic disorder is when a person has been suffering one month or more from panic attacks, and has been worried about the reoccurance of these attacks. I should think that people have been suffering from this disorder for many years - particuarly stressed people or perfectionists. The term panic disorder is just a follow on from panic attacks. No-one 'discovered' panic attacks or panic disorder. You make it sound like the discovery of a new unfound island or country!
