Hi welcome to the health care magic
Don't worry regarding your condition
Panic attacks and depression seems to be associated with lack of serotonin as per few study
So you have been prescribed good drug that is sertraline SSRI group of drug
It needs to be taken as per doctor advise and usually for six month atleast
If anxiety more your doctor will also prescribe you short term benzodizepine course as well
Take care
Hope your concern solved
