Re: As I was walking to college...

I have posted on those boards before, yes It's just. I wanted to try another board and see if people say that there is something else wrong with me instead of anxiety. Because maybe there are similar simpotms to anxiety of other illness, and people on the anxiety forum will only talk and understand my symptoms as anxiety. You know what I mean?

Re: As I was walking to college...

Hi again
I am on Celexa (citalopram).
How long did you take it for???
It will raise your anxiety for the first week or 2 ...but gets better after that.
It worked great for me...you may want ot reconsider...meds are really not so bad.I have my life back again...thats the best thing I can ask for.
Hope you feel better soon.
Let us know how it goes.
take care

Re: As I was walking to college...

Well, I only took the meds for 3 days! Only 3 pills! lol... Yes... but... before that I didn't know what was wrong with me and I was very ill, weak, water-ish tool, spining head, couldn't get out of bed. One of the GP's thought it was Depression and gave me the pills... after I took the pills, on the 3rd pill my life tunred upsaide down... I experianced the most hell ever. I had a very big panic attack... after that, I was left with sever anxiety, depression, depersonalisatin/derealisation for many months... the whole summer... my life was a total mess. Then it got batter, but I was still very messed up. Would get dizzy spels everyday... everything around me would spin. Felt sick and ill all the time. Now I am better, but not fully. Although, it's getting worse... somehow... in a strage way... I've had many wierd Mental things happne to me during that time... I'm too scared.

Hope what happened yesterday was a panic attack and not some brain illness. I felt I was blacking out... it was very strage.

God please help me ...

Thank you everyone.

Re: As I was walking to college...

I have PTSD, and what you describe sounds just like the precursor to a "flashback;" an episode where your brain revisits a trauma that was survived much earlier in your life. Sometimes, the trauma is so horrific to your brain that that swirling blackness is all you feel...no memories, because your brain can't handle it yet. Still and all, see your GP to rule out a neurological disorder. Once ruled out, think: did you suffer trauma as a child? Is there a period of time that you cannot remember? That is usually indicative of PTSD. I'm not a doctor, but I really related to what you described. I sincerely hope you discover what it is.
Good luck!!
