I just feel like I'll never get better. Like seriously it has been so long. I stopped risperdal 0.5, the lowest dose , 4 days ago . I lost it in the kitchen and started shaking my head and shaking convinced I was under hypnosis . As I was hypnotised and ended up in hospital and put on these tablets . I'm afraid I'll go into hypnosis now again walking the streets.. sounds silly but it's more a fear tbh of people and my head shaking . It was over 6 months since I was hypnotised . I stopped the risperdal anyway and I'm afraid my head shake will come. Back . I'm still taking the Prozac but there not doing a tap for my anxiety it's about 4 weeks 5/6 days today on Prozac . Dunno really what to do am at my wits end👽📚.. can barely go to town or be around people I feel so uncomfortable around people . All day I was comparing myself like oh I can't work I'll never work like him or her ... and it really upsets me . But I'm barely able for the world I can barely be amongst people z it's just v infuriating . I can't live right . I'm living in fear

Spice when do you see your doctor next? Give the Prozac 6 weeks. Everything I'm reading on hear people are seeing a difference then. You need to somehow deal with this hypnosis fear. You are freaking yourself out. I've been hypnotized a couple of times and never had a problem with it spontaneously happening. It's not supposed to work that way.
I get it, I am 3 weeks and the anxiety, nausea, depression and shakes are driving me crazy. Frig I just want to feel good!
Hold on sweetie. You are not alone.

Thanks Laurie what ways is your anxiety provoked and what situations do u have anxiety with ? I don't see them again for 2 months I'm on the public system . How old are you Laurie ? I'm 21. Yeah I know it's just a horrible feeling of repeating g the hypnosis and what happened me that night . Scary .

Well Spice my friend I am a whopping 52 years young. So I have been through this a few times.
my anxiety starts the minute I wake up and goes sometimes all day. But I have been starting to not have it in some evenings. I hate waking up to it.
my anxiety gets worse every time I have to go out. But I make myself do it when I need to. My son is getting married in a few weeks and I'm trying not to worry about how I will be feeling then.
Oh and we are having a wedding shower for him and his fiancé this weekend at our house. Lots of people and some sleeping over. Ya, I'm trying hard not to let my anxiety run wild with that!
For me I'm trying to do a bit throughout each day and rest when I feel the need to. I wish I could nap during the day as I'm tried but too wired from the anxiety to do so.
we are going to get through this ok!
Im here if you need me. I try and check my messages often throughout the day as I'm not working.

Hey guys - 57 years young here. I resisted more anti depressants for seven years and, looking back, it was the dumbest thing I did. Anyways six weeks today and my head is finally clearing up and I can actually "think." Not 100% but getting there. I know the blips will come. Anxiety is some in the morning Walk Walk Walk Even at my lowest I would just walk for 20 minutes. Nothing grand.

My daughter did a term at Glasgow University 2 years ago.
Before starting her term there she and her brother did some touring of Ireland. They loved it. I'm of Scottish descent so Some day I would love to visit Scotland and Ireland.
So I sound like a bit of a whiner about the rain! lol
But I have to wait till you and I get better. Which will happen.

Thanks Laurie I'm really hoping that Prozac can help me . Anxiety I have had since I was 14 and crippling for the past 2 years . I can't barely Remember a time where I was 'normal' . Really gets me down that I can't work like my friends can . Makes me feel inadequate. . I remember when I was 12 I used to sit up the front of the class and had no inhibitions . I was a happy girl . Until this kicked in and I Hagen no idea why it did.

Our brains are a finicky thing. We don't have any control over their wiring.
Its not your fault. I had a horrible childhood but I know that I have a chemical imbalance in my brain. I can't control it either. So I have been on medication since I was 21. I have tried going off but it just doesn't work for me.
There is something out there or a combination of medications that will help you. Unfortunately it takes time to figure it all out. Thankfully there are a lot more available now then there was years ago.
You will get there. Oh and sometimes I think normal is not all its made out to be. You just have to be the best you, you can.

Thanks Susan,
Your right exercise does help, it's just getting my butt up over my mind to do it.

Hi Spice,
Well it's just 1pm here. But I woke up to terrible anxiety, nausea, depression and the shakes. So I caved in and took 1mg clonazepam so I feel better.
I try not to take it too often for fear of getting addicted and it eventually not working when I do need it.
I have a chocolate lab named Gracie who is a registered therapy dog so on Thursdays we visit at a seniors home. I needed the clonazepam or I would never have gone. They really look forward to our visits so I don't like to disappoint them.
Are you feeling any better from yesterday?
