Terrible Day. Terrible Week.

I feel like I’m losing my mind. Constantly worried about schizophrenia or psychosis. I keep looking up symptoms and I have ZERO. Why is my mind telling me I’m going to lose it?? I stared at a pen today to make sure it would move. It sounds silly, I know. I felt silly doing it. Needed to push past that fear and reassure myself. This is like anxiety and ocd x100 and I just want to know if I’m okay.

Wouldnt move**** typo

It sounds like OCD level worry. Zoloft might not be strong enough. Prozac is the next level.

Prozac helped before. Just need to make sure it’s safe for pregnancy. I’m trying to be a mom soon.

Went down to 75mg for a week then 100mg

Maybe short term Zyprexa? It works wonders. You’ll sleep a lot the first day or two but man.. it worked for me

What is that exactly?

I know the feeling! I'm obsessed with the thought I could go blind. Not 100% unfounded since I have small cataracts and a family history of eye disease, but my anxiety of it is over the top. I keep thinking something is wrong with my vision. I'll stare at something until it gets blurry and then I panic. Been to the eye doctor twice in the past two months and he found nothing new. I'm afraid to travel anywhere remote because I want to be near an emergency opthamologist. I'm actually losing sleep and losing weight over this. My doctor gave me .5mg lorazepam and 100 mg of Zoloft to take daily. Been on it for 6 days now. I know it'll take time to work, but until them I'm suffering terribly. I hope you find something that works. I'm sorry your dealing with this too-it's really awful! It's like your brain can understand your fear is unreasonable, but emotionally you still feel the fear. Hang in there.

I am so sorry! we are the same it seems. I'm on 75mg Zoloft and .5mg clonazepam. Hopefully Zoloft works soon. Day 3. Started on 25mg.
