Anxiety or what?

[SheezusChrist]

So the last couple of days I’ve been feeling really sick. Anxiety does this to me. Nauseous and dizzy. Worrying to the point I had a panic attack. So I took a Dramamine for my dizziness and nausea and I was right back to myself. The ill feeling went away. So again today it happened, so I took a Dramamine just to see if it would help. And it did?! What is this? I’m so confused!

are you sure its anxiety and not something else?

I don’t know. I’ve been dealing with anxiety for about 4 years. And it has the same symptoms. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Benadryl took away my symptoms...too tired to care I believe. Calming effect. I was once on an anxiety medicine that is nothing more than a histamine blocker. Kind of like Benadryl but a different class. They found one of the side effects is calmness. So maybe it was something like that.

That’s the same thing my sister said. I’m on Xanax 0.5 but it just keeps my panic attack’s at a minimum nothing more. But Benadryl and Dramamine helps me sleep and calms me like you said.

May advice would be to stop these drugs. America has such a poor way of treating anxiety.

You need to see a anxiety specialized therapists. I can help you find one in your area if you have health insurance.
