Hi all. I have always been a bit anxious such as flying due to a bad experience and suffered a panic attack last year en route to the airport but my wife calmed me down and I made it.
unfortunately my wife upped and left in September for a bizarre reason (decided she now wanted children , we decided no but wouldn’t allow me to consider now we’re married ) and haven’t seen or spoken since, like I’m ghosted from her life
obviously it was hard to deal with, and I threw myself into work, friends etc until recently I was stood in the petrol station que and thought whoa I’m going to faint. Made it home and felt wiped out all weekend
made it to work the following week, legs started going cold and head pulsing so made a gp app and night blood pressure
things got a bit worse on that I just cried for no reason and went back, to be told I had anxiety due to what was going on. Was prescribed 50mg sertraline, felt better for talking to the doc. Took 2, and walking through town one day felt like I left my body and was going to pass out which set off the mother of all panic attacks
Since then (7 days ago) I’ve been on a constant state of panic. Even scared to go out incase it happens again.
My doctor is on holiday and can’t change the medication, and stopped the sertraline
just wondering if anyone has any similar experiences, or issues with sertraline
I am
Desperate to have some help and can’t wait for the doctor to come back to hopefully sort it out
