Could everyone please tell me that I'm going to be ok? I know logically I will, but I've been having severe anxiety today (had an anxiety attack last night as well). My thoughts were racing with my fears of abandonment.
The culprit is likely my med, and I just now took clonidine to slow my heartrate so I'm waiting for that to kick in. I just need to know that I'm ok and that I'm not alone. I know a lot of you have experienced anxiety too. It's awful but we can do this together, can't we?

I can relate, been there...I know it's hard and it feels like it's never gonna end. But it will, I know that, it always is. It's okay to need reassurance
It's gonna be okay.  And you're not alone

Thank you everyone, I needed that. My anxiety is a lot better now (finally) than it was for the majority of the day.
Sadly I do think I'm going to quit taking Latuda. My system needs a break. We can get through this anxiety no matter what.

Update: I took benadryl to sleep and slept decently. I woke up thinking the anxiety had passed but only 20 mins later it sprung back up. I think the med is still partially in my system.
I may go to the hospital later today to get help because I can't even eat and feel on the verge of vomiting.

I've recently had a change in my medication and dealing with my psychiatrist not giving me the dosage of Xanax that works for me so I run out too soon. I was thinking of going to the hospital because I've been really anxious and dizzy
