Since Febuaray of this past year 07'. I have never had a panic anxiety attack like i did. I honestly didnt know how to react to such a thing and didnt know what was happeneing to me. My attack occured on a Thursday and last till that following Monday. I went to the hospital, they gave me 20mg of xanex, then i went to my regualar doctor and she gave me
zoloft. I was on zoloft for a good month, felt okay, was able to go back to work, then i started to feel really depressed and pissed all the time. Went to go see a physco doctor (thats what i call them) and the idiot put me on 10mg of
paxil. Thought okay, my mom takes the meds and she is fine. Well after being on for a/b 2weeks, i felt great, really, really happy, happy sometimes for no reason. Maybe TOO happy and really tired, so i took the pill right before i went to bed. so I called my healthcare provider since my physco doc wouldnt help me unless I made an appointment w/ him. She told me to take 5mg every other day and see how i feel. I started to do that, i felt much much better. Still tired, really tired. Then I started to take it every 3 days for 2 weeks. I felt drawn out and exhausted. I went to see my physco doc again after being a month on paxil, and told me my problems that i was having w/ the meds, and he said that "if i am only take 5mg every 2-3 days, then my liver is rejected the meds and I shouldnt take it". So i asked him "well then what would u put me on for anixety?".. and he said "nothing at all". The doc looked pissed to put me on such a med and told me to go get another opoinion. I just went back to my general doctor. Now its been a/b 2 weeks since then, and I had to keep cutting the pill gradually everyday until I didnt take any at all. Now Its been a/b 1 week and I feel okay. I do get some brain twitches and some dizzines and my mind seems to get tired early. The doctor wants to see me back in a month to clean my system and see how i am doing from that. I dont need to take a pill to make me happy, that basically is telling me that something in my life I am not happy a/b. I didnt need a doctor to tell me that, so now i have to suffer from coming off this horrible drug, almost feeling like i wanna put myself in rehab!!! I hope that I never have to take meds to relieve anixety, I am finding different ways to relieve my anixety. and I dont need a physco doctor to tell me "nothing". Since all of this has been going on, It really opened my eyes to my own life..and how much my job is giving me aniexty, im fine when im not working. Plus has anyone felt like not caring on the drug or even felt like you were on cloud nine? I did, i am happy to be back into reality, and the muscle brain spasims, will hopefully go away!!! We will see!!
