Weird question
So I was taking lexapro 25mg and I started waking up at 5-6am with anxiety and shakiness every morning. My dr said to back down to 20mg and see what happens as 25mg might be to much. So I went down to 20mg and started to feel better less shakiness and after a while was no longer waking up with anxiety

On lexapro and still having anxiety...

Ended up in the Er needing a potassium drip but everything else was normal. Had a colonoscopy and endoscopy which showed gastritis and was put on aciphex

Feel unsteady, like walking on a trampoline or a boat
Hi, I'm on here because I've had trouble the past two years feeling like I'm walking on a boat or trampoline. My symptoms come and go, but now they're back again. It initially stated when I tapered off xanax a little over two years ago. I tapered too fast and went through withdrawals, then took Valium

Anxiety & fear.
I'm a 26 year old working full time, going to school full time, and I have an Etsy shop on the side. The other day (2 Mondays ago) I had a severe panic attack in the car when dropping my husband off at work before heading to my place of employment. I couldn't breathe, I felt a warm sensation all through

New to this forum...have a question.
Have any of you heard of getting insurance to pay for tanning as it helps with the horrible itching? I tanned 1-2x / week in may and June to prep for a trip to Jamaica in July and I experienced a HUGE decrease in my itching. When I stopped tanning (& about 2 months after my vacation was over) the itching

Is it PTSD and GAD?
I had a traumatic experience with the court system in 2014 where I lost custody of my children. Now, whenever there is a court related issue I spiral down in flames immediately. Panic, horrible anxiety, trouble sleeping.... I wonder if anyone can relate? Any coping techniques? I feel this awful awful

Type of panic attack
I am on Lexapro 5mg for about three weeks and take xanax two or three times a day. I am still waking up every morning with anxiety..I hate to get out of bed but laying there doesn't help. Sometimes I can get through the morning decently but each day I get waves of nausea, sick stomach feeling, dry mouth
