Hi everyone,
I have had depression / anxiety / panic for many many years and over the years various medication has helped me keep it under control.
However since July 2013, the anxiety and panic has been so bad and not controllable.
I am currently decreasing from Prothiaden and going to Effexor on Thursday or Friday. I also meditate, use relaxation techniques and the Facing Floating and Waiting for time to pass method too.
I was on Effexor recently and on a lower dose it seemed to be of some marginal benefit and then soon as it was increased the anxiety went through the roof.
My psych wants me to try it again and only stick to a low dose to see if that makes it better.
I am looking forward to getting to know and read other's stories on panic and anxiety and what was helpful for them.
take care
