Just got prescribed agomelatine. Crossing all my fingers and toes this is my holy grail.
I have never had general anxiety or depression and then randomly started having panic attacks out of the blue 12 months post partum. Drs put it down to late onset post partum anxiety due to hormones and a severe lack of sleep thanks to my sons HORRIBLE sleep.
I was put on fluoxetine, it was awful, my anxiety skyrocketed and i had constant intrusive thoughts and lost 10kg in 3 weeks, i was switched to sertraline and it wasnt much better.
I quit cold turkey and went the last 3 months with nothing and felt a hell of a lot better than i did on meds and have managed to not have any panic attacks since january but randomly the other day severe anxiety returned and intrusive thoughts.
Dr was apprehensive to start me on any other meds given my previous reaction so felt this one was best.
I reeaaaally pray this is the one for me.
I have nothing to be anxious about, but for some reason i just constantly feel scared for absolutely no reason.
And i'm not depressed about anything other than feeling so anxious all the time!!
Please give me your positive stories!!
