Maybe you have weaned yourself of the meds to soon , it would have been better discussing this with your GP

This could possibly be the reason you feel this way

I am not sure why you dont feel you can see your GP , is it because you have took yourself of your meds without telling them , I wouldnt let that put me of , they are there to help

It could settle down in a few weeks , once your body had adjusted , but I am not a doctor , so I would ask them myself

Hope you feel better today :)

Love

Have you thought of seeing another GP , in the same surgery , but one that might listen to you , as the one you are seeing doesnt seem to be , which a lot of us have found ourselves in this situation

Its worth a try :)

don't know how long your off the meds,but it took me about 3 months to be able to live without them,I was on tolvon for 20 years,they helped me to sleep,but I still had to take xanax every day,when I started cbt,first thing he said to me was,get off the meds.his idea was,if they didn't make me better in 25 years they weren't going to,well,I had panic attacks,balance problems,couldn't sleep,nausea,no appitite,foggy head,I was a mess,now my panic attacks are gone,my mind is clearer,I still have anxiety,but I had that,even on the meds.point i'm making is,mayby its withdrawel symptoms,they can last a long time,take an extra diazapam,and try cbt,I found it helpful,also rescue remedy,and b complex vitamins,understanding your panic is better than masking it with meds.you will feel better gradually,just hang in there....love Miarose...
