Okay so Ive had anexity / out of body experience and just feeling not with it atall it's very hard to explain it's like I'm in and out of reality 90 % out and I just can't stay with the current time it's like all my emotions and feelings go then I have to go over it again it's almost like starting a new day every 2 minutes, loads of weird memories and pouring into my head about everything I see/think off, Ive been on propanlol and citalopram for just over a month and 9 days ago they increased my citalopram from 10mg to 20mg and I'm also taking zopliclone to make me sleep 3.5mg , it's getting worse each day and each day, I am going to see a physiatrist tonight but I just can't feel like I am or anyone can help me as I feel so not with it and detached from the world and everyone.

Any help would be appricated and any guidance or anything thanks

    The medication needs time to work, if they have just increased the dose your body will still need to get up to speed with the new dose.

    You see your Specialist this evening, explain how you are feeling and see what He recommends.

    Have confidence with your Health Professionals, they are in partnership with you and your health concerns and treatments

      Hi thanks for the reply,

      I understand that it's just when I was on 10mg I felt myself getting a little better then it went bad when I stopped taking the propanlol as I thought It was getting better, and it's been over a month now,

      Your right though Ive got this physcatrist tonight and he should understand ect just hard to get that into my head 

      Thanks

    Hi Eddy, I can totally relate to what you are going through. I am struggling with anxiety and depression. It started out as not sleeping from the anxiety and then it spiralled further down. It got to the point where I felt like I was functioning but my reality had completely changed which scared the hell out of me. I was constantly battling with intrusive thoughts about life, why are we here?, analyzing everything, feeling completely alien!!

    I am feeling a bit better the thoughts are not so constant. I am on 40mg of citalopram.

    You must tell your psychiatrist everything they will help you. Don't feel you are alone because you are not. We're all battling something everyday but it's harder for some of us.

    Take care xx

      Hi Eddy. That's great news. Just keep going things will get better.

      I've got my first appointment today for CBT and I can't wait to get all this s**t out of my head.

      I was given diazepam but only used it when I really needed it. It does take the edge of the amxiety but I didn't want to rely upon it. I kept it in my pockets all the time, for some reason it made me feel better knowing it was there.

      Anytime you need you talk just write back xxx

      Yeah Ive just been back to the doctors and they have said because I'm a smoker that can really stimulate and mess with the tablets I'm putting into my system so I need to cut down on that which is going to be hard as I've been smoking a lot due to the stress!

    Sounds abit like depersonalization, it's probably just a side effect of your anxiety or medication. Try not be alarmed by it, I know it's hard but carry on like normal hopefully it will soon pass. Don't be scared of telling your pyschartrist how you are feeling they won't put you in a straight jacket and lock you up lol! Anxiety gives us all sorts of weird feelings and sensations. Take care x

    Hi,I’m getting anxiety aswell and I have been through whatever you are going through.I was on sertaline last yeah for 3 months and it has really helped me to be myself again...then again after 5-6 months I started getting more anxiety and it was all related to my sleeping patterns,intrusive thoughts aswell as ocd.Im currently not taking any medication.I feel as if I’m alone and I need help...also at the end of the day medication is not a solution to the problem.... I’m scared of everything and feel like crying...
