I was on klonopin hated how it made me feel so then got put on rixalti and I am not throwing up anymore or so tired from

It . Talk to ur dr about it .. is a very good medication

How long have to been taking sertraline? It’s a generic for Zoloft. Klonopin is for anxiety. I was prescribed it but was told only to take as needed. I stopped taking it a long time ago.

Have you gotten any better from the sertraline? I was only on .5mg of klonopin. It was just to take the edge off the panic attacks. It worked well for that purpose. Then once I was homebound I stopped taking it because I didn’t get panic attacks in the house.

I was also taking buspirone but was taken off of it because it was giving me horrible panic attacks.

Zoloft has made my life living hell. I was only on 25mg for 7 weeks until I realized its what was causing vertigo, insomnia, high blood pressure, seeing and hearing things. im on week 4 after quitting it, doc said to stop cold turkey. Its been taking everything in me to get through days. I hear fluid gushing sounds in the back of my neck messed up vision, a bunch of super fun stuff. My Klonopin I do not take daily it should be used for an emergency, for the panic attacks that just won't stop. So basically I take no meds now and I was just diagnosed with GAD in February. The meds are way worse than just having panic attacks. I usually have episodes all day but forcing myself to get through them has made a HUGE difference. Also CBD oil, exercising, clean diet helps, if I skip on those things I have more tension and face throbbing, heat, twitching, dizziness, etc those days.
