Hello :blush:
I think I have had social phobia for as long as I can remember, depression since my teens and anxiety since my late teens. I have been on citlapram on & off for years now. I've had pyscho therapy & counselling. I had been off citlapram for almost two years but started taking propranolol for a non essential tremor about 3months ago. Last week the doctor put me back on a combination of propranolol and citlapram. The side effects have hit me like a sledgehammer, far worse than when I have only been on citlapram. My mind is foggy, I feel spaced out and have zero appetite. I cant go to work...hell I'm self concious just stepping outside. I feel I am letting everyone down. I know my body just needs to adjust and then it will be okay. I just wish my family didnt see me like this. I asked the doctor what if I'm never ready to be of the pills...she didnt have an answer for me.
I just feel like a failure.
