Grrrr!! So, I made a choice about three months ago to go off of my anxiety/depression meds. The medicine did wonders for my panic disorder didn't really touch the depression. However, I was starting to gain tons of weight, having terrible headaches. I weaned off of them. I had been on meds for about a year in therapy for a little over a year.. I thought it was worth a try. Except I didn't tell my Dr. or T.. Both weren't all that happy with me that I had weaned (although, I did it the Dr. told me how to if I were to ever do it).. NOW- panic is back! In a big way. Dr. wants to try me on Effexor.. I am trying to hold of until work is done for the summer because I remember the first two weeks of Celexa being hell!!

I just don't understand.. How could some how something trigger Panic Disorder, I mean not just here and there panic attack- constant, multiple panic attacks a day.. One day I was fine that increasingly I started to get more and more anxiety. So, now.. after a year of HARD work in T, and being good about meds.. and nothing has changed. It is amazing how panic can make me go over the edge so quickly.. I see little hope, I feel defective, like unless I am constantly in T and on meds I am going to be a anxiety filled mess.
