Hello everyone:
Well, after 7 months off of an AD I will have to be going back on something. My pure "O" OCD is better but the anxiety is killing me. After 7 months of 5 or so hours of light sleep I am going downhill. I am a walking zombie at work and am coming to terms that I need something.
Tranzene made me depressed and lunesta gave me weird anxiety. The truth is I am very, very scared. I am so afraid of an ssri making me suicidal or homicidal I have resisted taking them (thanks OCD!) Remeron made the OCD worse. So, I struggle every day and this is not an enjoyable life at all. Just existing and going through the motions.
I am terrified of starting and ssri and having the anxiety get worse. I have no idea if the start up anxiety will go away but I desparately need sleep. Thanks for listening I don't know what to do but the current situation is intolerable.....god give me some peace please.
