Absolutely exhausted!

[StillyKat]

Hi everyone,

So I have basically been suffering this week with a nasty anxiety attack for about 5 days, just gone back on Propanalol, which is helping, but i am feeling completely exhausted. Im okay in the mornings, but by about 4/5pm my arms, legs and body feel so weak and trembly and all I want to do is eat and sleep like crazy. Does anyone else get this after a big panic attack or anxiety attack?
xxx:blush:

Do you think its something to do with the adrenaline pumpling around all day or just the constant worry?xxxx

Im on Citalopram 20mg and at moment am taking Propanalol x

they call it the mid afternoon lag and it seems to be very common but i aint able to say why how long does it last for or does it just carry on for the rest of the day :D
