After 3 weeks on Pristiq I experienced a few lovely days this week that made me think my anxiety was going.
It has really helped with the panic attacks, but now I feel depressed. A horrible, hopeless feeling. I have never thought I was a depressed person, just a panicked and anxious one.
God, I hate this feeling. I just want to feel well and healthy again.
At night I drink wine "to relax" and I know this is the worst thing you can possibly do. It can actually bring on the depression, can't it, but silly me does it anyway to "escape" my brain for a few hours. Only to wake up and feel depressed and panicky again the next day.
It's embarrassing to type that. I'm not helping myself, I know.
My latest anxiety symptom is a sort of muscular pain in my chest, sort of in the centre and back. Now I am convinced I have something seriously wrong with me and the tests I have had done missed something.
Feeling so helpless
