I won't take antidepressants either made me feel terible. I've read alot of success stories so there's definitely a way out. But it's a hellish affliction, I can belive it when the doctors even the theropists tell me it's just anxiety I was convinced I have a brain disease of some sort even thought I was going psychotic sometimes when I feel so detatched it makes me feel like my whole life is a dream ino it sounds insane but the doc's say that's anxiety, hard to believe sadly.Feels scary.
i've had something similar happen to me twice, it pretty much happened when i was under alot of stress, i went back on fluoxitine and that night after taking it i woke around 3am with a scary jolt of fear, then that was it, i was in a constant heightened state of anxiety. lasted a month then had stop the fluoxitine as i was still such a state, got put on citalopram and the got me to calm down. in the first too weeks i also had to take diazepam as for some reason around 7pm i'd start to calm down then in the morning as soon as i'd woke the anxiety would hit me again and i't start hyperventalating. and it would be the same thing every day, go to bed fairly calm considering then wake up hyperventalating.
i've just recently came off medication for the first time in 3 1/2 years. i think the reaction i had to the prozac was to blame. wish i'd never been prescribed anything. but it was an unbearable experience i had, which is tough as you have no choice but to just deal with it. it helps to know that any weird sensations you have are due to the stress and anxiety. i had a pounding heart a lot of the time.
Perfect, that's great! If you need anything, post on here or feel free to send me a PM!
Good luck and all the best!
I have the same fear if I feel like a little weird feeling in my chest or anything really in my chest I automatically think it has to be my Heart and somethings wrong with it. I hate thinking this way ugh I just want it to go away.
yea thats how i have been i just want it gone. i hope there is someway out of this
