Default Hang in there

Hang in there everyone.

This is a great forum and I'm glad we are all helping each other.
It especially helps when your doctor brushes off my reported withdrawal symptoms as highly unlikely... and basically says he isn't sure how he can help me. I'm still all over the place emotionally at times but I can see that some symptoms of Lexapro withdrawal have left me after 2-1/2 weeks of stopping. The tingling in my hands and very spacey feelings have backed off. The anxiety/panic is still there and I sure could use a guess on when that will back down. Keeping busy helps. When I over-react to the anxiety instead of just accepting it as purely withdrawal related I do better with it. When I just let go I do better with it. Hard to do at times when my heart is racing all of the sudden. Just scares me that I will never be well again. Having dealt with anxiety attacks and panic attacks in my past makes me hypersensitive to any anxiety.
