I'm finally going to try daily medication for my anxiety. I was put on Cymbalta a couple years ago to deal with nightmares, and I was absolutely miserable. I got brain zaps all day and I could hear my eyes moving inside my head. I'm wondering if all SSNRIs have the risk of brain zaps, because if they do, I want to stay far, far away.
I really don't know much about the medications for anxiety, but I want to be prepared for the discussion with my doctor. It would also help if you could list any medications you know of that are used to treat anxiety, so I can do a little research on the possibilities.
Thanks.
