    daily panic attacks

    HI everyone,

    Its been a while since Ive posted.I have been off my medication effexor for months,ive been taking it for 3 years ,slowly tapered it off tp a tablet every other day and every two days till i came off them.I was able to handle coming off them for a while that is ubtil it catch up with me again.Now I seem to be getting panic attacks on a daily basis that comes and goes. its like mini panic attacks with a few big ones thrown in I dont want to go back on my meds and im really trying to just take it in stride.Im exercising now but sometimes its hard because of the physical symtoms im feeling.My symptoms are aslo shifting.Before I use to suffer from really bad tummy troubles,acid indigestion ,heartburn and reflux now Im getting dizziness,hard of breathing,palpitaions,dry mouth and really weird spacy feelings.Just need to vent this out coz its driving me off the wall.My quality of life is not what i want it to be.I also want to say that this site has help me a lot deal with this sickness.You guys are all wonderful.

    Hiya

    Take each symptom as an individual and see what you can do to relieve it and not allow them to overwhelm you and take you down to panicing about them.

    Have you had any therapy help for these as well as the meds which will only mask the symptoms whilst you were on them .

    They don't cure panic. If the reasons you paniced previously are still present then you will revert to panic after you're off the meds.
