Okay, normally I don’t like talking to anyone especially my family but this time I was kinda forced. So me and my sister started to talk and then she mentions taking antidepressants and I just start having this major panic attack and just ran away from home for a couple of hours. I don’t understand why I panicked so much.

When I use to have hardcore panic attacks I was afraid to try meds too. I finally caved. I take xanex, propranolol, and Paxil. While it doesn’t cure everything as you can tell, it takes the edge off just enough to stop my panics, as for depression..,.,I don’t know how the hell I can get rid of that
Might be plenty of things. Maybe you identified yourself with the antidepressants thing (if you are taking them, or if you think you need to), or maybe since you know how being depressed and having anxiety feels like, hearing about it made you remember it and/or feel empathy for your sister. Those are the only i could think of, and it’s not that uncommon, whenever someone talks to me about some situation similar to those that hurt me, i just feel the urge to go away.
thanks. but im still to afraid of taking them
You should do what I did – take a quarter pill, than if you still feel ok take half, than work up to the full dose.
Hey Ali……. you should try the tabs there is nothing to panic about – yeah they might not work or may not make you feel any different, but what have you got to loose ? – I’m not sure they have made a difference to me – in my mind……but last night my wife said to me the girls(2 daughters)said you’ve stopped shouting at them so much and been less angry…
hang in there Ali
