Thanks Ellen,
Feeling sick/dry mouth and tired. Very very anxious though, got few pains in my arm/hand and im thinking I will have a heart attack or something. I am terrified tonight I will have a nasty reaction while I sleep:-( I hate night time.

I hate meds and cannot abide even anti-biotics. I will do anything to avoid them and even when I cracked a rib I refused to take the strong prescription pain-killers they prescribed so I know how you feel.
I am wondering if you feel that you really can't abide these drugs that you do need to take them?
There are other routes med free that I took as I tried Dothiepin and Prozac and pinned all my hopes on them curing me and neither did.
I am just wondering if you will be better going med free and getting counselling and CBT instead and taking the natural route - exercise, diet, vitamins etc etc
These drugs will NOT cure you - they will alleviate the symptoms and give you a break from the feelings but if at the same time they make you feel this bad and obviously distressed then is it worth it?
Just a thought.

I do agree with Nicola, but I also think you need a break. Anything's worth a try isn't it?
Are you on the waiting list for talking therapy of some kind? Cos that's what should hopefully help long-term, but I do think trying meds to get you through a sticky patch is certainly worth a go.
Well done, Julie, you'lll be back in the morning, I promise!

Hi Jem
Glad you chatted with your doc, even if you were told off!
My doc recently put me on Seroxat. I was really worried after reading side effects, but my doc said the pills can really help. She also said you may feel sick and have a dry mouth, but that taking pills with or after food makes you less likely to feel sick. But like Meg says, don't forget that pills are an aid. Treating whatever causes the anxiety as well as the symptoms is also important.
Your body is adjusting to the new pills, so you will feel some differences, but that doesn't mean its bad. Trouble is the anxiety makes you feel so many things on the side effects list too. [8D]
Hope u feel better soon.
Lisa.
THanks, I had a bad night really anxious about being on them, im not 100% sure I will carry on taking them:-(
I am on a waiting list for CBT and possible a psychaitrist.
Hi,
Same here, been told it could take four months to be assesed then a further 6 months before they can see me.
