hi, i know thaats sounds obsurd. i noticed since she choked on her milk at 2 wks old thaat i am extremely nervous when i feed her. she 12 wks old now and petrifid to be left alone with her as im afraid i will have a panic attack . i usually ask a frend to come over or babysit short periods of time. i adore the baby, she is beautiful and hate that i feel this way.
I also have lost 4 family members this year and this last one really hurt, i felt sick, nauseous and was in highly agitated state for the last few days. I have had a history of GAD and panic problems for many years. I went off of prozac last year thinking i would be ok. (i was on it for 12 yrs) I went back on it 5 days ago ss waiting for it to help.
I get very skinny cause i lose my appetite and get very nauseated when i am anxious.
Anyone else ever lose weight or feel like theres a fist in their stomach?
sometimes a hot flash when i am already anxious makes it worse. i know menapausal fluctuations can cause many mood changes in some. i am experiencing menapausal symptoms and GAD both. its no fun. wish you the best
Hi everyone. I have been away for awhile but had some deaths in the family and marital probs triggered full blown panic and anxiety again. As usual, it hits me in the guts.....dont want to eat, nausea, heart pounds, adreniline rushes and it goes on for days or weeks. I went to the doc and he gave me .25 xannax 2 x day and started me on celexa. he said it would be a couple weeks for the celexa to work.
sometimess the sound of my husbands voice makes me panic....we have issues. other times, i just wake up on edge.
anyne tried celexa? does anyone experience weight loss/loss of appetite?
hi, once mine start sometimes i have panic attacks for days, cant sleep much, dont feel like eating, just feel totally stressed and in overdrive like sheer terror. Then i'll calm down or get burnt out by evening. it sux!
hi all! well i did eat at thanksgiving dinner and i almost didnt go as i was afraid i wouldnt be able to stand having anxiety there but seeing familiar faces and the festive atmosphere actually helped. i didnt want to come home.
i find it hard just to sit and watch tv sometimes but i am trying to.
sometimes i just feel like a surge of adrenilin is over working in me and i just want to pace.
sometimes i just feel sick or ill along with it. to top it off i think i am having hot flashes as i am menapausal as well.
hope evrone had a good thanksgiving and wishing you all well
i totally understand and hope you get to feeling better. if i had not gone off my antidepressent, i probably wouldnt be back here. dont be afraid of trying the meds, as when they work its wonderful. they get you back to your old calm self and you wont need xannax anymore. been there, I was always on prozac before but my doc insists on celexa this time so hopefully in a week or two i'll see results. i am using xannax as well. i hate it too and it only takes the edge off temporarily.
i have such hard nights because i sleep maybe 2-3 hours and then i wake up like every hour or 1/2 hour. i kept having fearful thoughts about not wanting to eat and fear of losing more weight. i am 5'6 and at 136 lbs but look more like 120. i must have heavy bones as i can look must smaller than i weigh.
i get all tensed up in the guts and under the ribs, so i think thats why i lose my appetite. it almost feels like a love sickness or something. its weird.
I am most anxiety ridden int he morning, right out of bed. I have been taking a nerve pill within 10 min of getting up or it just gets worse. It usually calms down around noon and then I just feel really tired and foggy all day Sometimes i lose my appetite too.. Does anyone else experience this?
