I think I had every side effect listed on the packaging. I'm not here to bash anti-depressants because they worked for my co-worker, but the suicide thoughts are what scared me and I didn't have those until I started taking Zoloft. It always helps to talk to somebody when you feel an attack coming. Anything to take your mind off of it. Ativan was a miracle drug for me. I think my dose is 1/2 of a 1/2 of a milligram if that makes any since. Sometimes things would trigger the beginnings of an attack. Like talking about something sad or being negitive and I would have to leave the room or ask them to talk about something else until it passed. Just know that you are NOT GOING TO DIE FROM THIS even though your mind is telling you something else. Let me know if there's anything I can help you with  |
Thank you so much, You dont know how much I appreciate this.
