Middle of the night anxiety attack. After a klonopin too. Oh yes, this is why I went on Effexor to begin with.
Middle of the night agitation attack while on higher dose of effexor.
Why on earth do these things happen in the middle of the night? Is anyone awake to help me chase away the monsters?

It's cuz the monsters sleep all day, they have to come out and play (with our heads) at nite. While we sleep they go back in their caves to hide.
I hope your agitation is passing -- do you have some nice calming pills to take? Deep breaths? A kitty cat to pet?

But now your imagery will come to mind whenever my son asks about monsters under the bed or in the closet. And I'll have to bite my tongue not to blurt out "No, they're all in your mind." :)
You have quite a way with words.

Won't even attempt to match your wit.
Are you my neighbor? Because the monsters came to my house actually early in the evening about 7
and I took 3 Klonopin..not that its a competition,
and had a sweaty anxious no-hope tossy turny monster filled night (effexor too)I haven't slept in 3 nights sleeping used to be my favorite thing. The worst part is I have a live monster (my Dad) who insists on opening my blinds at 6 am.. and shout rise and shine!
Oh God
let me out.

They did indeed. I took another one today and had a lovely nap. Apparently the monsters don't like sunshine.
My dad used to sing "Oh how I hate to get up in the morning" at the top of his lungs every morning. Boy did I identify with the part about the bugler.
