Hmm Wierd Feeling
| Fri, 09-09-2005 - 7:33pm |
Ok I have been taking xanax or i guess a drug like it, and after some sleep I wake up kind of rested. Now I was heading out to the mall but as I was driving to pick my friend up I was thinking hmm im feeling rather ok, kind of like a good feeling. Then I get this odd feeling like something is wrong almost like a panic feeling but not quite its a wierd feeling on the top back of my head and throughout my body like almost I need to do something or get out. Like the topic states Hmm its a wierd feeling.
oh and to add also i feel like im freaking out like something is wrong with me, its like i cant think of my ex, almost like i dont even care no more.

I, of course am not a medical professional but i sounds to me as though you had the start of a p/a but managed to stop it before it became full blown.
It is very typical of us anxiety people to think that "something" is wrong with us, I think all of us on the board have done that. As far as the wanted to get out feeling, I have had that before also, it's another symptom.
You said that you wake up "kind of rested".., to me that is not good enough. My pdoc says that a bad nights sleep is cause for anxiety/panic in itself. Maybe you need to see your Dr and talk about some alternatives to help you feel rested and sleep well.
Take Care and I hope you are feeling better!
Kevin, What's the name of the drug that you are taking? It sounds like it's probably taking the edge off and that's why you're not obsessing about your ex now, that is a good thing! I think it will be hard for you two to work things out while you are so obsessed about it. Once you give her some time and step back a little, things might work out for the better. I agree with Heather that it sounds like you started to have a panic attack and stopped it. Again, another good thing. Since you weren't sleeping at all before, it might take a few days to get your body on track and start sleeping normally. When I started taking xanax I slept almost all the time for the first week or more. PLMK what drug you're taking, is it klonopin or xanax?
