I️ don’t get it. I️ had dr for over a year like 5 or 6 years ago. I️ still worked and did stuff but it didn’t go away. When it did I️ had a good 5 years without it and then this past March it came back for about 3 weeks to a month and during that time I️ did nothing at all. Iv had it for almost 3 weeks again. I️ don’t get the time line of this and if I️ kept busy the first time why did it stay so long and when I️ did nothing but worry the second time it went away ? I’m more scared than ever this time that it won’t go away. I️ don’t know what made me better. I️ did start paxil a little over 2 weeks ago

Think really hard. What did you do in those years that improved your DR/DP and what do you think may have contributed to its resurgence?
You had a 5 year remission which tells me -- and this is if it isn't anxiety -- that there may be some neurophysical cause to it. If so, research and get some pet, eeg mri scans done.
