Hello

What you explain in your post sounds like anxiety symptoms and coming of your medication you could be getting some withdrawal symptoms as well 

Was the medication suiting you . is there a reason you are coming of it ?

Maybe you need to go and speak with your Doctor as you should not be left to feel this way and they need to know how this is affecting you 

Take Care x
