Hi all I’ve been back on paroxatine now for nearly 5wks and I’m still feeling really sick, anxious and shaky. Is this normal? As any1 else ever suffered this long. The doctor said I will feel like this till the medication evens out in my system. It’s really scary and I hate feeling like this. All I want to do is lay in my bed, is this normal, any advice or reassurance please 🙏
At 2 months for me I was still having the restless legs while laying down. I think it finally stopped last week! It's a slow process it seems but surely you'll also get past these side effects! Hang in there! Try increasing your water intake too.
HI frankie thanks for ure reply. R u on them for anxiety? And what mgs r u taking x
Yes on the anxiety. I had a panic attack in October and didn't think much of it until I caught the flu at the end of December. Had pretty bad insomnia and a racing mind at night. Started out at 50mg (25 for 4 days then up to 50) and went up to 100mg on Feb 20th. Still have days where I'm a little disoriented but I've found drinking more water helps make it tolerable. Upping is a daunting thought but might be worth asking about or possibly trying a different med if you're really not feeling at least some relief from your anxiety.
