It has done with me temporarily when the dosage has been increased, but long term it has helped me a lot with my anxiety
I wasn't upped to 80mg slow release a few weeks ago, my sleep has never been so bad .... that's probably it then
does the sleep get better .. I'm thinking of lowering the dose, going back to a few 10 mg per day
might help to reduce the dose a bit and see how u get on. It has helped me with my sleep, why not try night nurse that really helps with sleep :)
good thinking .. the night nurse that is
I have had some sleeping tabs for the past few weeks (but not taken them every night because I don't want to rely on them). I have lots left but really want to find another route.
I don't like medication
Me neither. I once got myself out of a severe depression just with CBT on its own so it is possible without but u need time which I do not have atm I dont know about ur situation.. U tried relaxation CD's?
Actually I don't think I have depression, mainly the "lows" when I'm having anxious times.
No I haven't tried them, though I have just started counselling (had one session) ... it's good to talk lol
hi pixiebell
im exactly the same ive been on propranolol for nearly 2 weeks now and it has messed my system up so bad i was fine on just the amitripyline,i fell faint and as for helping with anxiety it has just made it worse my hands and feet are numb and i feel on edge,my doctors an idiot as i told him i was beginning to feel fine with the amitripyline and then he had a brain wave and decided to try proprananolol 40 mg 3 times a day and 2 amitripyline at night....little did i realise that the propranolol would disturb my sleep pattern and end up feeling on edge!
anyway as this was posted a while ago i was just wondering how you were feeling now and if you feel anyway better now its out your system?
as i feel so bad.:yesyes:
