GAD Advice badly needed

Posted by pete on March 9, 2001, at 21:19:12

I have been suffering from the physical symptoms of anxiety for the last year brought on by 3 years of worry about misdiagnosed peripheral neuropathy and the loss of ability to walk properly. I feel incredibly anxious most days with pronounced dizzyness/lightheadedness, mild agoraphobia and panicky episodes as well as some fear of social situations. I also suffer insomnia. This is something ive never really experienced till now although ive had periods of depression all my life. My doctor doesnt really listen and keeps trying various SSRI's including Prozac, Paxil and Nefazodone(serzone) but all these make me extremely agitated and increase anxiety after only a few days use. (Serotonin overload or something). Ive read some of the posts here and looked around the web for info/help but Im still confused. I could really use some advice about all this as Im desperate to try to find some relief from my symptoms. I try to maintain a positive outlook and rationalise it away but its like something taking me over which I cant control or fix. My doc dont seem to realise that im finding it difficult to cope, I could do with some advice about anti-anxiety drugs that work. Thanks.
