For Panic Disorder "- First 4 days of imipramine @50mg I would have odd outer body-type experiences just before falling asleep, created more panic. - 2nd and 3rd week I could feel my panic fighting against the medication, I thought it may be starting to work. By the second month I was going to the bathroom only once a week, yes, the constipation is real. I had a full body cold shiver which took up 90% of my day, restless leg while trying to sleep, problems urinating, and my anxiety was back. You would think only on a month and a half I can stop, NO, had to taper off, next, everyone will react differently."

Imipramine for Depression "Tofranil made me painfully constipated, very nervous, irritable. Between doses, I'd get extremely weepy and emotionally distraught. It was the only time in my life that I felt life was too hard. When I started experiencing heart palpitations, I stopped taking it. I have CPTSD and borderline."
