Hi Everyone, this is my first post! I suffer from General Anxiety, Health Anxiety and Depression (I'm not trying for a bingo, but think I'm close!). My GP has prescribed LOTS of different meds over the last year, but unfortunately I have not been taking them due to side effects aggravating my Health Anxiety. For example, I was on Citilopram a while back and because they made me feel sick, it triggered off more panic attacks. Or, I'll get so worried about side effects, I'll start panicking and not take the meds at all! Recently my GP has prescribed Fluaxnol (flupentixol) 0.5mg and I was wondering if anyone else had been on these and could tell me if they work. My GP has said that other patients have reported no side effects whatsoever and that they are really effective for Anxiety, but I can't bring myself to try them as I'm far too scared about getting sick from them!
Sorry if this seems like rambling, and I'm sorry if this is posted in the wrong section, but any help would be greatly appreciated!
