My meds are off
Hi I've had anxiety for about 12 years now. Back in oct my Effexor pooped out and I was having withdrawel symptoms. My dr put me on lexapro after about 8 weeks it seemed like the withdrawel feelings came back and lexapro wasn't working. I went to a new dr here in my town because the dr I normally go

Panic attacks and anxiety
Hello, I'm a 30yr old married mother of two boys. I've always led a normal life, and I've always dealt with panic attacks and anxiety. They've never been life altering for me though, I could have one while driving and get rid of it within minutes no problem. All of that changed in November of 2016.

According to the urologist the stent was suposed

Balance (part2)
thanks to you all for your responses. i am gonna see my doctor soon but am wondering if there might be a link between diabetes and clumsiness of lack of proper grasp. i keep dropping thing, don't seem to assert distances properly when i am sitting, for instance, and don't FEEL awkward but am AWKWARD.

Tried Effexor xr and fainted
My anxiety has gotten so bad that I tried a med for the first time. I got a rush of anxiety after the first hour. Later in the day it got so bad that I feel like it brought on more rumination and anxious thoughts. Then at night I got up to use the restroom and fainted on the toilet. Woke up and

Anxiety for weeks, then completely gone for weeks, then back again for weeks, then gone for weeks. What's going on?
It all started in May 6 months ago. I had terrible panic attacks for 3 months straight. Never thought I would be normal again. Eventually It slowed down and i felt normal again for about a month. I mean completely normal, anxiety free. Then something triggered me at work and I felt a ping of panic,

I was put on pristiq and that helped tremendously along with a few sessions with a psychologist. About a year later I started having panic attacks again. My meds got changed to effexor and

What medication do you suggest?
Does anyone have a medication they feel like worked/works best for them? I've actually heard Wellbutrin doesn't treat anxiety (it's usually only for depression which I get from being anxious) Hello all! This is my first post! I'm going to try to shorten this and not make it lengthy. I started having

I had the absolute best summer ive ever had, i met and started dating the most perfect guy at the beginning of summer, was not anxious at all the whole summer, literally

One more shift
Well I have one last shift tomorrow morning. I don't usually do mornings cause my body doesn't wake up till 1 pm but I am desperate to finish these hours so I can take the time off I need on sick leave. I have had a better day today, no brain zaps from Effexor withdrawals. That's a lot more than

Antidepressants side effects
I'm taking Effexor and amitriptyline. I started both two weeks ago at the same time. I have been feeling more restless, anxious and getting hand tremors, poor coordination. I don't know which is causing this 😞
