I am sorry that you are going through this right now.  Unfortunately, this anxiety/panic cycle can be hard to get out of sometimes, but it can be done!   Throughout all of this, have you had access to talk therapy?  I normally support the use of medication as long as it is done through a knowledgable doctor, however, remember that there is no 'magic pill' that will cure you of this.  In my experience, only the long term knowledge that you will gain through confronting it and learning about will give you long term relief from this....welcome to the forum and please keep on sharing your experiences with us!
