About Me

i used to ba a very strong individual until i had my one and only child and my hormones went wacko. about 9 months after my daughter was born i was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder and after my 3rd trip to the emergency room my doctor put me on paxil cr 25mg. because of sexual side effects i had to cut my pill in half and take half the dose everyday and that seemed to work wonderfully. after 3 years of being on meds i decided to take myself off the meds and work on this on my own. it took me a year to get off the paxil cr and i felt better than ever after being off the meds for 1 month. things had been going great i would have a few mini panic attacks now and then but it was nothing that my xanax couldn't help. i went about my life, felt good, was happy.....until now. about 3 months ago my anxiety came out of nowhere with a vengence. i felt panic attacks that no person on earth should have to feel. i never had a panic attack like the ones i was getting and they were just getting worse as the days, weeks, months went on. i finally went to the doctor last week and they put me on 150mg of wellbutrin xl and i am more miserable than before. 10 hours to the second after taking my meds i go into a severe state of depression and panic comes with it. i take my xanax and within 1 hour (which before when i would take one within 20 minutes i was better) i start to feel better. i have a call in to the doctor today and i am anxiously waiting their call. other than that i am a happily married woman with 1 child and 1 dog. i really don't know what else to say - so i will close for now.
