"Panic attacks are one of my main weaknesses. " (HarleyFults)

MDJunction to me

fluffyluggage"I found MDJunction at a time when I was struggling with so much. I
was so sick. I found a home, a place where people understood me, when
even my family doubted me. In MDJ, I found a place of refuge, love,
and support. I come here daily, to find my balance, to cope, and to
find that same support I've found from day 1. MDJ is my new family.
The friends I've made here will remain with me for a lifetime.

mandieo,

You can always call the Pharmacist where you have the prescription filled if you are worried about possible side effects too.

Live in the moment and let life happen!! {Hugs} Kissing Kissing Kissing

I've been on paxil for 13 years and my blood pressure the other day was 124/78 with a resting pulse of 58. In those 13 years I don't remember it being over 130/80 ever. So I've never had that issue
meds--paxil 50 mg.
epival 500 mg twice/day
missed a total of one day of taking meds in 13 years

I am not a medical professional. I just post what has worked for me to improve my life to a point where I am now level and happy nearly all the time.

I have a tattoo on my left forearm that says "Living in the Moment",...it's the only way to do things.

meds--paxil 50 mg.
epival 500 mg twice/day

angel i tried to call the pharmacist but the line was busy. i feel awful today but i do understand there is a startup period for ssri's and it tends to be worse for anxiety sufferers. but i am so tense, feel on the verge of an attack, feel flushed ect. i hope after all this i finally get some relief from my constant panic

Your welcome mandieo.

I know everyones attacks and emotional levels are different so just push yourself to what you are capable of doing. Laughing

As Angel mentioned, you can ask your pharmacist also regarding the meds.
