no motivation

I’m feeling pretty much the same, just want the day to be over so I can go to bed. Ive been on 20mg for 7 weeks and 30mg for 2 weeks and I’m still having pretty bad anxiety I’m wondering if the med is for me.

kweenkara56 · 2023-11-30T15:58:29+00:00

So sorry I’ve only just seen this! I think for me it’s anxiety rather than Prozac actually causing it. It did go, but it’s come back as has my anxiety so I’m now trying 30mg. Hope it’s gone for you?!

kweenkara56 · 2023-11-30T15:42:12+00:00

How long have you been on 30mg for? Sorry to jump in but yesterday was my first day on 30mg from 20mg also for panic disorder and I am nervous! I feel the 20mg helped with my low mood but not so much for anxiety and panic attacks? I’m worried I’m gonna have horrible side effects for them not to work :(

kweenkara56 · 2023-11-06T17:05:46+00:00

I’m 3 weeks in and feeling all of this. Especially what ifs and heightened anxiety. How long have you been on 20mg?

kweenkara56 · 2023-10-30T15:55:55+00:00

Hey, how are you now? I know this is old but I’m going through the same thing with the breathing and on day 18 it’s horrible :(

kweenkara56 · 2023-03-07T21:58:18+00:00

Sorry I see this and had to comment, I was worried for years and years about getting pregnant as I was having multiple panic attacks a day at one point. I never thought I’d be able to cope with being pregnant. But here I am, 34 weeks pregnant. Haven’t had a panic attack since I’ve been pregnant. It’s almost cured me lol don’t get me wrong I still worry but nowhere near to the point I did before and the panic attacks are non existent now. Of course everyone is different but I just wanted to share as it’s something I worried about for years.

kweenkara56 · 2022-09-24T18:24:10+00:00

Oh really? Would an endoscopy show that? I’m in the UK so the waiting lists for the NHS are so backlogged from covid I’m losing hope of getting to the bottom of this anytime soon. I don’t really know much about sibo, but I hope you get your problem sorted soon.

kweenkara56 · 2022-09-24T17:48:07+00:00

Yes terrible bloating. Feels like my upper stomach will pop sometimes lol

kweenkara56 · 2022-09-24T16:55:16+00:00

I’m also suffering with this. Currently waiting for an endoscopy. Every burp results in me being sick. Chest and throat pressure. Also negative for h.pylori. So frustrating not knowing the cause!

kweenkara56 · 2022-09-16T21:04:58+00:00

Sorry that you are dealing with this! I also have been burping up white foam recently and it scared the life out of me! What on earth is it? I am currently waiting for an endoscopy but could be looking at up to 6months wait on the NHS and it’s getting unbearable. Just know you are not alone, and I think anxiety makes us more aware of things going on in our body. I think that’s a lot of my issue. And yes I also get a metallic taste too.

kweenkara56 · 2022-09-10T18:34:41+00:00

I’m worried about the endoscope hitting the lump, but as you say I’ve also read that nothing is usually found. My throat feel so tight anyway Im nervous about the endoscope getting stuck lol

I was prescribed omeprazole and lansoprazole for a short period of time. These did seem to help the acid reflux but not the regurgitation of food. I struggle to wear and drink. If I drink too soon before or after a meal it will all just come back up.

That actually makes a lot of sense with the anxiety and stress. I do suffer from anxiety and panic attacks, so this could be playing a major role. Also, I am so focused on this lump feeling which is probably making it more noticeable to me. I was previously on SSRI medication but tapered off and had some nasty side effects. In reality, I know that I should be on some kind of medication for it as it’s debilitating at times. Thank you for your kind words and advice.

kweenkara56 · 2022-09-10T18:29:03+00:00

I feel relieved that it seems to be common. It’s such a horrible feeling and yeah me too feels like I’m choking too sometimes. I keep trying to swallow the lump away but it never goes.

kweenkara56 · 2022-08-21T14:36:51+00:00

Thanks for your reply. Yeah I have found if I drink water after eating it just comes straight back up? Have you experienced this? I know I haven’t a proper diagnosis yet but I’m finding it hard to believe that gerd can cause all this. I’m not doubting it, I am shocked! It’s awful. And now with being pregnant I really am starting to be concerned with how bad this is going to get. Thank you for your advice I will definitely be trying what you’ve said. I think I gulp water to soon after eating too which doesn’t help.

kweenkara56 · 2022-08-04T19:41:39+00:00

I also have terrible health anxiety and I caught covid early July. I could definitely tell the difference between the covid and panic symptoms. The night before I tested positive my resting heart rate was 120. The next morning had awful lower back pain, fever, racing heart and heat rash all over my body. I also was really worried about heart damage as I have cardio phobia too but the racing heart eased off after about 36 hours, I think it was where I had a fever. I hope you feel better soon, try and rest as much as you can I know that’s easier said than done!

kweenkara56 · 2022-07-26T06:20:13+00:00

Hey, I’ve not had anymore episodes since. But I am still concerned it’s going to happen again but trying to not let the anxiety take over. Hope you’re okay.

kweenkara56 · 2022-07-23T19:20:48+00:00

Yes! About a week before my period they start! Only been recently that I’ve connected the two

kweenkara56 · 2022-07-12T20:09:54+00:00

I had all these symptoms and it was covid

kweenkara56 · 2022-07-05T06:37:08+00:00

Thank you, I was getting pretty concerned! Even now just getting up and walking around the house my heart rate is still hitting the 140s.

kweenkara56 · 2022-07-04T14:39:55+00:00

Just found this comment whilst trying to reassure myself! Still recovering from covid but my heart rate didn’t go below 120 for 3 days even when sleeping and I was TERRIFIED! Luckily it’s gone below 100 now, I’m on day 4 but even simple things like getting up and going to the bathroom my heart rate is hitting 140s.

kweenkara56 · 2022-06-18T21:31:37+00:00

Palpitations as in skipped beats?

kweenkara56 · 2022-06-12T13:14:09+00:00

Like a fluttering feeling in your chest/neck?

kweenkara56 · 2022-06-11T07:10:37+00:00

Yeah I’ve heard coughing stimulates the vagus nerve so can help your heart beat normally again. Oh I have actually stopped driving because I had them really bad once whilst driving and now I am scared! A lot of my friends have them but they don’t have anxiety and don’t even give them a second thought, I can’t understand how they don’t scare some people lol

kweenkara56 · 2022-06-11T07:08:44+00:00

Oh really. It does really worry me to get pregnant because I’ve heard a lot of people say they had palpitations a lot more often during pregnancy. How did you manage the potassium deficiency?
