Tirzepatide caused anxiety relapse

I have had been diagnosed with panic disorder for years now. I started lexapro 5mg in September. It has been amazing. A couple small break through panic attacks. Nothing that even needed ativan. I have been on tirzepatide compound for 11 weeks. Things have been going fine. I had a dose increase last week. I increased to a higher concentration of tirzepatide. I felt off ever since taking that shot. Ive been sick and nauseous. Cant keep anything in. Dehydrated. Well tonight it hit me. I had high anxiety all evening leading to a severe nocturnal panic attack. I know its the tirzepatide. Its the only change. Can anyone else relate?

Tirzepatide Triggered Attack??

8 months on 5mg

I love lexapro. It has been life changing. Absolutely changes my perspective on everything. Life just doesnt seem that intense and things dont seem so serious anymore. I can work through the tough situations without feeling like the world is ending or im dying. That being said theres still anxiety at times. Still small panic attacks every once in a while. Im wondering if that can all be fixed by upping my dose. My only hesitation is that i still feel everything. I can cry, i genuinely laugh, i can feel anxious. I dont want that to go away. I see so many posts about being numb. I dont want that!! But the anxiety has been higher this week. I have found myself more irritable, more stressed out, more anxious. Im thinking after 8 months maybe i need to up my dose. Anyone else relate? Thanks.

Higher dose - super sick

I have been on this medication since March. I started at a very low dose and worked my way up. I just got my first dose at a higher concentration on Friday. I have been sick since. Cant keep anything in. Going to the bathroom constantly. Im dehydrated and havent eaten in 2 days. Does this go away or am i stuck like this all week?
