High Anxiety levels
Posted , 6 users are following.
Hi to everyone
I'm not new to the forum, but have only answered before, and never put my own problems on here.
So here goes, I've suffered from depression for over 20 years but less frequently with Anxiety, but this year has been so bad for me with anxiety attacks and nothing seems to help.
I am on so many pills, citalopram, Mirtazapine propranolol pregabalin and painkillers as I also have Fibromyalgia.
I am also seeing a psychotherapist have done CBT and listen to relax/hypnosis cd.
I had a few really good days the other week and now crash bang, back to a massive low and panic attacks,can anyone out there relate to this.
By the way,I absolutely hate being on my own,I can relax around other people, but leave me on my own to cope! and it's horrible.
I hate this Illness and just want to feel normal again.

I'm sorry to hear that you've been feeling low but I promise you will feel normal again! Anxiety doesn't last forever, I promise. It may be that your antidepressants need changing, as my doctor told me that some do not work for everyone, so it might be worth going back to see your doctor. Do certain situations trigger your panic attacks or do they come out of the blue?

Thank you so much for answering me. I helps me feel less alone.
I don't know what triggers it, but I don't like being on my own.
I saw the doctor this morning, but she doesn't want to mess with my meds, but is referring my meds to the psychotherapist.
The Doctor did prescribe me quetaipine 25mg, but I haven't taken one yet as I'm a bit worried what they might do to me.
Any replies are more than welcome, and thank you again ☺
