Hello there. I’m so sorry that you are struggling so much! I used to be house bound by my anxiety. It was completely miserable! I’ve been on a lot of psychiatric medications. They can be very hard to stop and start. Antidepressants are kind of notorious for causing issues that you are describing after taking only a few doses. When I was on Lexapro it made me feel very funny. I’m on Remeron on now though. Hope that you feel better soon!

I can't take antidepressants because they do the same I get incredibly sick. I've been taking 2 MG of Xanax for over 6 years. My last antidepressant that I tried (prozac) gave me a seizure. You need to change doctors. When used responsibly Xanax is wonderful and life saving. My doctors have no issues with Me having it because they saw how sick the other medications made me. My father also took Xanax responsibly for 30 years. If you look under the FDA drug reviews there's millions of people who can't take SSRIs and take Xanax or klonopin instead. I think you need to definitely advocate for yourself and talk to another doctor. Everyone's brain chemistry is different. If I was on an SSRI I couldn't even function. I hope you get a doctor who understands you and helps you. Best of luck

I believe what happened to me is called serotonin syndrome they say it's rare but its not as rare as they say I'm in a fb group where so many have had the same experience and can only take benzos.its sounds like the SSRIs are not helping you 💔

I am just so sorry. Virtual hug.

I’m so greatful for everyone’s comments i like hearing other ppl actual experiences and stuff they’ve learned I hate ppl always telling me I need medications I no I need medication but they don’t understand it’s so hard to find a medication that works and dealing wit the side affects I’m trying to look up as much as possible bout medications and I’m just obsessing over reading and reading and then I realize I’ve spent hours reading and I have to make myself stop and I think prescribeing antidepressant for an anxiety disorder is wierd I no they help wit ocd and can give relief I also have depression alot of it’s from dealing wit my ocd but you’d think they’d prescribe more anxiety medications to I have anxiety attacks and panick attacks anytime I get sick I automatically think I’m dieing and make myself sicker I stress and worry so much bout everything I get scared to leave th house and go anywere I’ll literally be home wit no food and still not go to the store It’s slowly gotten worse I’ve always had anxiety and social anxiety but it’s just slowly gotten worse I stopped wearing bras at nite cause I felt like I couldn’t inhale and I have raceing thoughts it takes me forever to go to bed and I wake up every hour to pee and can be up sometimes between 2 to 4 hours at points in bed so I get no rest and in bed for longer then I stopped wearing my bra during the day cause I felt like I couldnt inhale and I’d worry if I got an anxiety attack I wouldn’t be able to breath I could go on and I just feel like if xanex is there then wat reason do they not prescribe it it’s suppose to be for instant help I feel like I need that just as much as I feel like I need an antidepressant for my ocd to I’m just always scared always panicking I’ve literally gotten gerd and vertigo which I didn’t even no could be caused by stress I’m getting physically sick from worrying so much this is no way to live.
