Have been in a panicky and high anxiety state since Sunday and found I have had to take a Diazepam every day to keep it at bay.. Two or three times have gone into full blown ones which frighten the life out of me.
I am used to medium panic attacks, have had them for years but I normally get some give inbetween.. this time it doesn't seem to be letting up.
I have been on Lustral 12.5 (tiny dose) for 5 weeks and although I should have put it up to 50, I put it up to 25 because of the side effects.
My main worry seems to be a fear that I am "going mad" so its with me all day and everywhere I go (which is not far from the house).
The reason I am asking is because I am pretty sure this fear is something new and wondering if it is the start up of the tablets.
I am also suffering badly from a fear of being on my own.. even for 5 minutes so have someone with me all the time.. this started beofre the tablets but came out of nowhere.. I am in proper sheer terror if I think someone will go out and not come back!
I am probably babbling now sorry.. but it is taking over my mind 24 hours a day. I am struggling to concentrate on anything like chores.conversations and even the TV.
thanks for listening xx
