Hello-

Diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder in 2003. I have noticed that it comes on for months end then it will stop and bam its back full fledged again. Im literally worrying 7 months out of the year? I was controlling it with 60 mg of prozac a day, kolonopin 1 mg daily, and up to 3 1 mg ativan a day plus therapy 1 a week since the EARLY 2008
Then i lost my health insurance. I havent had any medications from March of 2009, nor any therapy.I cant afford it.


Anyway since may my anxiety has been the worse it ever has been. I literally would only get up to go to work. However i would go into an instant panic attack if a group of people crowded around me.I went in to store the other day and freaked out because of all the people in there. I never had agrophobia. Just panic and anxiety.

I would lay in bed all day worrying that I was dying or going crazy because i have been experiencing new symptoms. Dizziness, muscle twitches, memory loss, heart palpitations, feeling im not real, sensitive to lights, headaches, lump in my throat.

I also took to taking my pulse about 3 times an hour. I think Im developing hypochondria. I've had ekgs, heart ultrasounRAB they say they are normal. Is this normal to think you are dying with anxiety?

I also have quit smoking 1 month ago, and no caffeine

please any input i greatly appreciate. Im so scared
 
I am going through the exact same thing. I went off meRAB for weight gain and 6 months later boom.....dizzy all day, heart beating fast, body aches, pressure in ears, weird vision, constant dread and fear of dying, brain tumor or ms. I am a wreck. I too get around a group and freak. I can not go outside without glasses. I forgot them the other day and had to buy new ones. My eyes hurt so much. I have been a constant wreck for a month now. I lost 20lbs from nausea from worring. ........I also get the feel i am not real. stated prozac and deplin and xanax as needed. kw
 
I recommend Celexa, its generic, good for anxiety and people with anxiety had pretty good success with it with little side effects (you can get it at your family doctor). Klonopin could be used as needed for panic attacks
