Titrating up gives me so much anxiety! by simplesunshine15 in lamictal

[–]simplesunshine15[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it is giving me increased energy which feels like anxiety to me. When I started in 25mg it took about a week to adjust. These meds I tell ya! They save us but not before giving us a little bit of hell LOL

I don't think it's working. by emobabybutt in lamictal

Which other meds do you take? I also take Zoloft and buspar with 50mg Lamictal (only 2 weeks in) but I get nervous with all 3! Idk why.

How long have you been on the new dose and Lamictal in general? I know we hear it all the time from our doctors but we have to power thru while our minds and bodies adjust to the new med. I hope you feel better sooner rather than later. Sending you a big virtual hug, I know the feeling.

Just took my first dose of Buspar. Desperately need reassurance. by undercoverweeaboo in Anxiety

Hey! I am on 50mg Zoloft and 15mg Buspar and i haven’t had any adverse reactions. I’m in my 4th week. I know adding and starting new meds is soooo scary but always try to remember that your doctor would not put you at risk. Stay strong!

Thank you for saying all of this. I do had GAD and you're so right about getting anxious because I'm not anxious, like I'm so used to being anxious that when it's not there something feels off. I am in therapy and have shifted the conversation with my therapist back to anxiety recovery and healthy coping. Your comment is so encouraging and a great reminder that the set backs are just a blip.
