Hi guys,
I've done a few posts in the last day but I'm starting to get really freaked out now. Been on medication for depression and anxiety for a few years and recently just switched 4 weeks ago to Fluoxetine. Now when i first came down with this, i had a massive panic attack that happened out of the blue and lasted for hours. When i woke up the next morning, my battle with depression had started and i felt incredibly low and constantly anxious.
Fast forward a few years where I've been able to work, do things, meet a gf, get a car, move out (although I've had to move back in with my parents). My depression and anxiety have got steadily worse over time. Last night, i experienced a panic attack that felt exactly like the one i first had all those years back. I freaked out again and eventually managed to get back to sleep. I'm now in a state of intense anxiety non stop, lost my appetite, feeling disconnected from other people, not really talkative and a general feeling of unrest. I can't sit still. I'm absolutely terrified of going back to how i was all those years ago. I feel like I'm back to square one and it feels so severe, i can't even get into my car without dread. What the hell is happening to me? I feel like this is happening for no reason, therefore i can't really do CBT
