Medication assists to treat symptoms of the disorder, assisting the individual to work on the biological and cognitive thought process of the panic disorder without having to work on the whole situation at once. Many idividuals suffering anxiety are also coupled with the onset of depression and or other mood disorders.

I always keep a paper bag in the car as the carbon monixide(?)from breathing in and out can calm your breathing if uncontrollable.

I am on 30mg/day for PTSD. It mostly controls getting adrenalin spikes for me. At least I understand whats happening now. Its almost been 3 years, lost my family. Starting to rebuild everything now. You get that. My favourite quote always has been 'Everyone is crazy some of the time, it just depends on how crazy and how much time'..... The author of that quote was actually me when I was 18.So i figured that out long before my curent issue occured. Am 31 now.

I think zoloft was the first, but it stopped me arriving at the end with the missus....the 2nd, cymbalta, gave me the squirts for a month till I told the psychiatrist to get stuffed and stopped taking them. I had to be on nothing for week before I could switch to the lexapro-that was murder, but worth it in the end.

vibe_xr6: I was on zoloft, so have both my mum and sister, none of us could handle it, it made the issue worse. We've all found lexapro as an AD, and Xanax as an anti-anxiety help (mum and I are/have been on lexapro succesfully and my sister is on xanax). While we still have our days, highs and lows, its a lot more stable, and its not nearly as extreme. I occassionally get a bit of jaw tightness, but thats moreso psychological, as I expect that from any AD med. My housemate was on zoloft for the past year, if he forgot his meds for a day, he'd get real snarky, and then he'd forget the next day and so on, until he was almost psychotic, was rather scary to be honest, and difficult to make him see reason to be able to get him to take his meds again. Thankfully he's off them now, and self managing.

I don't want to mess around with the time of it too much, as I like you know when I've missed a dose, and I realise pretty quickly.

I had a old high school mate who gets panic/anxiety attacks, but he'd only get them while driving which was a little unusual. Any sort of modded car, tailgaters, anyone he thought was intimidating him, or Holdens, specially Holdens, he hated them, he would easily get wound up by them and racing off with them at any cost. He'd end up shakey and in a cold sweat afterwards, said it was like having a mega adreinelin hit, he could only liken it to sky diving, so I can't relate to that...
But his whole demeanor would change in an instant, he start all calm and collected then go quite and it was on, a quiet intenseness would come over him and wouldn't talk much back or hear what you say to him, he'd just zone out. Needless to say, I do not get in the car with him anymore, he says he's seeing someone about, but I have not seen see any progress. I don't know how he hasn't killed himself or someone else, or even lost his license yet. I try not to associate with him now, too scary Apart from his driving antics you'd never know....

I've learnt the hard way that one should not consume alcohol when on SSRI medication.

i used to drink beer and spirits from age 15 to24 , stopped because i married a non drinker <<< not the right reason to stop . anyhow after many binges with the boys into the mid 30's you come to realize you only do it to feel happy , and after a while the conceptrion of happy changes , if i go out now and drink , i pretty much dont change how i am , or may just get heavy headed and a massive 3 day hangover , so a really really big alcohol night for me now is 3 beers , or 5 beers max . pretty much now the norm is 2 beers twice weekly . and i gotta say , if you need a drink to have a good time , that is not normal , sorry but its the truth , even though sometimes i go to a club and dont drink , then i dont want to be there , therefore they are boring places as i dont like them in my real state , sober . unless i go with a mate i can have 1 or two ,anymore and i wouldnt be there to enjoy a mates company . just dont drink for a while and find a hobby/ hobby club instead , and you'll find you seek different kinds of fun . |
