I am depressed and have bad anxiety and panic attacks. I told my doctor about my panic attacks and was put on Paxil, the Paxil made me hallucinate, a constant panic and suicidal so I quit after just a week. The effects lasted weeks/months and I thought I had lost my mind.
Now I just take Ativan to calm the panic attacks but they make me so angry and agitated.
My problem is I have uncontrollable anger, jealousy, sad and suicidal. It effects my relationship terribly, I cannot stand to even hear a woman's name come out of his mouth or I feel instant horrible anger. Thoughts about his past intrude my brain constantly and make me so sad that I can't stop the thoughts. I find myself in rages and complete paranoia that he is cheating constantly and it's tearing my marriage apart!!
I see a therapist monthly but I cannot bring myself to tell her the way I feel. I spend weeks/months so miserable and angry. Then il have a month here and there where I feel happy and normal and like I can do anything a normal person can.
I feel like I am undiagnosed bipolar.. But I just can't bring myself to tell anybody how I feel.. I'm so embarrassed

You did a good job describing how you feel on this post. What about writing it down and have your therapist and psychiatrist read it. If you don't have a psychiatrist, I suggest that you get one. A general doctor just isn't as well informed or as sensitive as a psychiatrist. I had the same type of reaction on paxil. Told the psych and he upped my dose! Changed psych's then. Almost hospitalized. Anyway I hope these suggestions are helpful. Blessings.

favorite quote from the movie, "ET"
when Elliot tells his friends in the park what they have to do to save ET from the scientists, Greg asks, "Why doesn't he (ET) just beam up?" to which Elliot replies, "This is REALITY, Greg!"
