Feel like I’ve relapsed, when I should have

Posted , 5 users are following.

Hi I’ve been on Zoloft 150mg for over 5years, and still taking them, I’m 27 years old and reason I take it because I suffer from severe panic attacks and anxiety attacks, they last all day long where I can’t function at all, I feel dead in side and like nothings working. I recently got the flu and was given sudafed nasal spray, which I asked the pharmacist if this is ok as I’m so careful with what I take. Well it reacted with the Zoloft and I’m back to square one like I have never been on it, went to the doctors and they told me it’s due to the sudafed and should have been given to me. He has prescribed me Valium for the mean time, but I’m even over powering that, the doctor did say the Zoloft will still be in my system just needs to reboot pretty much, this has been nearly a week and a half and I feel no progress. I’m am so scared and petrified is an understatement, I feel like it’s not going to end, I’ve never stopped the Zoloft so I feel they should have helped a bit Valium easies me for few hours but that’s all. I feel so dead in side can’t eat can work can’t drive nothing. I just want this nightmare to end...

      I wish the best for you, just always keep your options open, never close the option door, and you can get through this, maybe even closing the door on certain meds could really help. Sure hope you get through this okay!
