Hello everyone. I am kind of worried and anxious at the moment about my heart rate.
I was on 5mg of paroxetin the last 5 years and before 10mg for like 10 years.
After severe burnout with mild depressiin and anxiety I visited a psychiatrist. He said the paroxetine would not work optimal anymore and advised to change to deanxit 10mg.
After 5 days I woke up with a fast heart rate.
About 100- 105 at rest and it goes up to 125 when standing up.
After 3 days of that I visited my psychiatrist again and we concluded it might have been the deanxit causing this.
She changed to sertraline which I started yesterday and today with 12.5mg. Tomorrow I will up my dose again.
However this heartbeat still remains high and it makes me very scared and worried and uncomfortable.
Would it be possible that it is still from the deanxit after 2 days not taking it anymore or could it be paroxetine withdrawal which I stopped now for 8 days. I have no further withdrawal as far as I know.
This is getting me very agitated and frustrated as I donīt get to sleep wel and do nothing besides sitting on my sofa.
I know 100 or 105 is not that problematic but it worries me like crazy.
