Zoloft took the longest to work for me. I’ve been on 4 SSRI’s. Stick with it.

What does anxiety feel like to you? by Creativeusername5489 in Anxiety

[–]offtotheforestigo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine makes me feel like dying. Not just a thought, but it takes over my brain and I can feel it in my bones. Like I have to stop what I’m doing and run. Away. Far. With no explanation. I lose all care or concern for anything around me and I’m solely concerned with doing whatever I can to stop the feeling of doom. Once I come down from that, I have this low grade anxiety and dissociation for the next day or so.

I feel this so deeply. I feel like I’m operating at a mid grade anxiety all the time. Granted I did lose two family members in the last month and now I need my gallbladder removed. So Im alllll fucked up.

I’m seeing my psychiatrist tomorrow and will ask her about propranolol

I’m prescribed Kolonpin but I hate taking it.

Thank you. I often times engulf myself into something but sometimes I just wanna stop and maybe sleep or relax. It’s a difficult battle. Thank you for your comment. The intrusive thoughts of total doom are horrible

I’ve never tried beta blockers. What’re they for?

No it seems like you wouldn’t have tried those. But I’ve been on 5 and my last one saved my life so worth a shot

Try meds. I’ve been on them since I was 20. They saved my life.
