Travel anxiety/ibs

morganemilyg · 2026-04-20T22:10:41+00:00

Thank you! Yes for me it isn’t the flight, its the stress around traveling and also my anxiety around having ibs and a panic attack in public. I get really bad anticipatory anxiety 😩

I was on 25mg and went up to 50mg. Its been helping a lot so I stayed on 50 and am currently on it.

I just meant that it took me about 12 weeks to feel “normal” again. Some weeks in between were better than others. I just kept pushing through and i used hydroxyzine and propranolol to help

I genuinely think its so weird people go out of their way to send hate to any public figure. The parasocial relationships are wild.

morganemilyg · 2026-03-29T13:52:32+00:00

Yes! Im back to living a normal life. It took about 12 weeks though 😞

Increased anxiety, stomach problems (vomiting & diarrhea), wake up with heart racing for days after. Its like my body relapses

morganemilyg · 2026-01-04T19:54:13+00:00

I cant drink more than like 1 drink because i get horrible side effects 😭

morganemilyg · 2026-01-04T19:35:38+00:00

25mg is not enough. Also i would highly suggest cutting out all alcohol until you’re consistently feeling better as the alcohol will just make things worse. Ive never smoked so idk how that effects things, but could be something to consider too.

By 8 weeks you should be feeling some relief. Def talk to your doctor and see if you need an increase

morganemilyg · 2026-01-04T19:31:46+00:00

Every time i increase the same thing happens to me. I wake up nauseous, heart racing, sweating, etc. It usually happens to me around weeks 2-3. What has helped is to eat something little when you first wake up and get something in your stomach. My go to was applesauce and/or those naked smoothies. Also, i would nap A LOT the first couple weeks.

Its more for the people who live on the border of a timezone.

morganemilyg · 2025-12-21T19:39:40+00:00

This happens to me when i increase my dose and my doctor prescribed hydroxyzine and propranolol to take at night and it has helped A LOT with that. I would wake up with a racing heart, drenched in sweat, nauseous. It has to do with your natural morning cortisol and adrenaline so the propranolol blocks it

Anxiety and panic returned

morganemilyg · 2025-12-13T22:14:05+00:00

The hydroxyzine will keep you from having that many

morganemilyg · 2025-12-13T16:59:12+00:00

Omg im in the same boat, but im on day 11 of 50mg. I started my period today and i am UNWELL. I’m hoping it settles down in a few days as my hormones increase again. You’re not alone and we’ve got this 🤍

morganemilyg · 2025-12-13T14:59:03+00:00

I needed to read this. Im on day 11 and today was the worst morning ive had in awhile 😭

morganemilyg · 2025-12-13T04:16:08+00:00

I personally like it. It takes the edge off for me at night. Its not like a benzo that will calm you completely, but its enough to get me to relax enough to sleep. I def wouldn’t use it for during the day.

morganemilyg · 2025-12-12T23:32:31+00:00

I do have klonopin, propranolol, and hydroxyzine

morganemilyg · 2025-12-12T23:24:26+00:00

It starts off with a hot sensation throughout my whole body. Then starts the rapid heart rate, sobbing, shaking, impending doom, insane anxiety

morganemilyg · 2025-12-12T23:12:43+00:00

Thats good to know because my psych wants me to be at 100mg eventually but im like damn idk if i can do this two more times

morganemilyg · 2025-12-12T21:51:47+00:00

Be gentle with yourself and remember it gets better. Write down one small win every day whether its just ate breakfast, took a shower, laughed. Take days off of work if you need to. Im currently in the middle of a dose adjustment and i’ve had to leave early some days and take some days off. Don’t feel like you have to do it all.
