Well, I just got back from the emergency room.
This is what happen:
Day 3 Zoloft. Symptoms: Nausea, high anxiety, insomnia, loss of appetite, when I finally fall asleep something "jolts me" "wakes me up" "high adrenaline"
This has been going on since the first day I took Zoloft.
Well tonight was a bit different, I finally went to bed at around 2 or 3 o clock. Woke up at 4 AM, I was covered in SWEAT. I immediately PANICKED, I felt NAUSEOUS, I felt SICK, I run for the toilet, because I felt like I was going to throw up, and I woke up SICK, and I had no idea what was going on. I go to the bathroom, I can't throw up, so I start to cry, my hands LOCK up, and I cant move my hands, and my hands become numb, and fall asleep, and my feet do too. I freak out, and have my family drive me to the emergency room RIGHT AWAY.
I get to the emergency room, and the doctor says it all from Zoloft, its just a side effect, and he said that I must of had a panic attack or something, and thats what caused my hands to cramp up like that, and he said I was probably hyperventilating.
But I AM WORRIED, this is something else.
I mean why would Zoloft make me wake up in a sweat? Why would Zoloft make me feel SOOOO sick, like I felt like I had the FLU, that's how sick I felt.
I'm worried :(
I can't stop fearing the worst, I cant sleep at night because I am afraid that Im going to wake up sick again.
This is my 3rd night with not good sleep. And I start college tomorrow, and I am afraid I wont be able to handle college because of my insomnia and my anxiety disorder and panic disorder.
I'm so scared, I don't know why I woke up, and felt SOOO sick like that? I just don't know what it could be, and I am so worried its something serious. I STILL feel nauseous.
