What is the youngest reported case study of male schizophrenia? My son started hearing voices at 7-years-old but wasn't diagnosed until 2 months before his 10th birthday. How many case studies are being done on young children?    Dr. Pies' Answer

My doctor recently diagnosed me with mixed anxiety depression with panic symptoms. He put me on 10 mg of Paxil. It doesn't seem to be helping much, but it's only been 2 weeks. Should I wait a bit longer, or is there another type of medication that would better treat my condition? Also, how does a doctor decide which of my conditions--the anxiety, depression or panic--to target first with treatment? Does one medication treat all these conditions at once?    Dr. Pies' Answer
