Does anyone get random episodes where they are really dizzy, lightheaded, upset stomach, unable to process things, and just feel really weird? Sometimes I'll feel like I'm moving when I'm laying completely still. The medicine I'm on does cause dizzyness and I've been on it for 4 weeks and every time I take it, it seems to get worst. Anyone else have these head issues? I'm so worried there is something wrong with my brain.

      Zoloft was my first anti-depressant I was put on. I didn't think it worked all too well. Also. Do you ever get that feeling where it feels like your head is moving back and forth on your neck?

    Yes I take Valium for anxiety and meiners aka as vertigo so I'm no stranger to all your symptoms. Mine went away not completely but for awhile and last Tuesday returned with a vengeance. I feel like I'm going crazy again I can't even take a shower without having an attack and I dread them I usually wait till my wife gets home from work because I'm disabled from it. I took one this morning instead and I was shaking felt sick to my stomach and pulse rate shot up.

      Valium is one of the pills my mom was thinking about getting me put on (it was brought up at the doctors). But I just got a new psychiatrist/psychologist and I'm kind of nervous that'll put me on Xanax or Adivan. Have you had any experience with any of those two?

      Is ativan a 24 hour once a day pill? Or a whenever you need it pill? Because I have anxiety nearly all day so I'm trying to figure out what medicine to bring up between the couple they mentioned.
