I never use to be until I experienced my first panic attack a few months ago due to a bad reaction to Lexapro and Buspar. Since then I won’t even take medicine for a headache. I know it’s ridiculous but now it’s a real fear of mine. There are moments I feel confident but they just as soon disappear when it comes to taking the medicine.
Part of my biggest fear right now is because I deal with constant lightheadedness, body weakness, and feeling like my heads spinning that the side effects of Zoloft (I was prescribed 25 mg of it to take) will make what I’m already going through even worse. It’s a challenge for me to deal with my current symptoms everyday I don’t think I could handle it to be any worse. I feel like crawling out of my skin sometimes. I’m anxious and exhausted.
Has anyone been through a similar experience? How did you cope? I feel so lost. I tried seeing a counselor since my family doctor recommended me to. All that accomplished was a $130 assessment where she thought “I may have some anxieties” and to basically tell me I can’t afford therapy with her or anyone around because they’re all between $75-110 a regular session. I can not afford that.
I don’t want to just “deal” with this, I want to feel better and feel like myself again.
Please help me I’m getting worse instead of better
getting back on medication
How do you cope with driving anxiety?
Can I get rid of my medication soon? 
How do you know when to give up on something?
