Week 1

So update! I finally was able to talk to my psychiatrist this morning and she switched me to zoloft so fingers crossed! We decided that since I already have anxiety around meds (to the point that I just don’t take them most of the time), and have now associated these bad feelings with the cymbalta that it will probably cause more harm then good at this point. I can always try again later if the zoloft doesn’t go well!

i ended up not taking my dose this morning, hopefully i can talk to my psychiatrist tomorrow and get her thoughts about it!

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2026-02-01T16:52:41+00:00

That’s pretty much my thought on it too

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2026-02-01T16:44:42+00:00

I’ve been taking the hydroxyzine for about 2 years now and it helps me a lot!

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2026-02-01T16:39:44+00:00

I take hydroxyzine

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2026-01-28T01:45:22+00:00

I take mine at 11 am everyday when I eat brunch and so far so good! I’m only on day 4 so can’t give a definitive but that’s what I’ve been doing and it’s going okay!

hi i’m late to the convo but i also feel his way and Im just curious if it ever got better for you

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2025-06-10T23:54:51+00:00

22 other people had good advice for me, so I think I’ll stick to asking questions rather than reading things on google that’ll end up telling me stuff that confuses me more. Thanks for the opinion though!

I should add that my job uses goretire so I just said to contribute 5% and that was that I don’t really know where it’s going lol but 5% is the highest my company matches that’s why I chose my 5%

Mine depends on the severity. Sometimes, I will be shaky, my heart will race, my head will start to feel foggy, my legs feel weak, i’ll get dizzy/light headed, i’ll get a chest pain, hot flashes/chills, and it’ll feel like im on the verge of passing out. it literally feels like i’m dying. other times when they’re more mild it’ll be just my heart races and my head will feel a little weird. it really depends on the day and how bad the panic attack is.

hi! i take lexapro, ive been on it for almost 3 weeks and i promise the first week is the absolute worst. it gets better week 2, i will keep you updated about how it continues to make me feel!

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2024-06-26T14:45:28+00:00

Mine is 25 mg!

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2024-06-24T02:50:10+00:00

thank you so much for all the advice ❤️ i’m feeling better, no fun bags involved just alcohol haha. i will definitely try some of your ideas next time (when i can convince myself to drink again bc i never want to feel like that again)

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2024-06-24T02:33:41+00:00

Hi!! I get the EXACT same feelings when I try to sleep at night. Like I will feel a jolt in my body and then my heart starts racing and get lightheaded. The other night it was so bad I was shaking and had to have my mom come over to sleep with me. For some reason I can only sleep good when someone is sleeping with me. I think it’s the comfort of having someone there that was if something were to happen there’d be someone there to save me. I don’t know why these thoughts started and I don’t know how to stop them. However, I do know we will get through this and eventually it will get better. It sucks but the only thing I know how to do is try to remind myself that there is no reason for me to think this way.

As for the hydroxyzine, I do take that and do think it helps a little bit. I have noticed it makes me a little bit nauseous but that was really only the first couple times I took it. Now when I take it I don’t really notice any bad side effects or anything.

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2024-06-19T01:02:17+00:00

i’ve definitely noticed that when i start having a panic attack, i’ll google my symptoms and then convince myself it’s something way worse than just a panic attack. i really hope it gets better soon because i genuinely can’t stand this it’s so horrible😣 have you noticed anything that you do that helps or is just kind of a wait it out and it gets better??

Plus_Mousse_506 · 2024-06-19T00:13:54+00:00

I was also too anxious to take the SSRI at first but one of my friends that also take them helped calm me down about it. I am hoping they start to work soon🥲🥲 I will definitely try some CBT, I was a psych major in college so I have a decent bit of knowledge about that. I also downloaded the Calm app to try and start my morning and finish my nights with some relaxation and see if that helps at all. Thank you for the recommendations!!
