[Agora1 in reply to Johnnie1234]

I have high blood pressure and was given 25mg of Metoprolol . It is also good for anxiety. No problems with it.

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Agora1]

yeah the thing is idk if i could take sometimes when i feel my heart rate fast and do you ever get those dizzy feeling while you walking and feeling like your going to past out that just happen my head feels wierd

[Agora1 in reply to Johnnie1234]

I use to feel that way when my anxiety was real bad. the more I feared it, the worse it got. I no longer experience that feeling when walking. I've learned to accept it's not harmful as well as go forward. But then again, I'm on medication so that possibly is helping.

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Agora1]

Yeah i felt that just now but i was fighting it like not here not now and what meds are you taking they gave me something called paxil never took it doe

[Agora1 in reply to Johnnie1234]

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Agora1]

oh okay i have paxil 25mg havent tryed it yet at all but i still feel things but been trying to handle it my self with out taking meds if it doesnt work i might need to take meds

[Agora1 in reply to Johnnie1234]

Johnnie, Over the years, I would fill my prescriptions and they would stay on the shelf because I was too afraid to try anything. So you are not alone in being cautious.

I too wanted to do it on my own but when a medical necessity came along (high blood pressure), I had no choice but to go on Metoprolol. Funny how it's been the best thing for me.

Don't worry, when the time is right and you feel comfortable taking medication, you will know.

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Agora1]

Yeah you right

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Agora1]

can these type of meds like paxil or the one you have treat depersonalization like unreal dream like vision and sympthoms in your body i always feel like fast spasm on my arm or chest like moving by its self fast aswell.

[Agora1 in reply to Johnnie1234]

I really don't know Johnnie. Paxil is a SSRI (antidepressant) which works on the part of the brain that controls our way of thinking. Like a mood enhancer. When you get the fast chest or arm spasms, that would react better to a antianxiety med. But your doctor would be able to tell you what is best for you according to your health history.

Just remember that we are not doctors, most of us relay to what we experience with symptoms as well as medications we've been on. That doesn't mean it would be the same for you.
