i stopped zoloft and switched to lexapro about a month ago. i am living life and LOVE my life again. i never imagined i would ever be this happy and anxiety free again. i went from having multiple PA daily to none-ZERO!!!! i can control my thoughts,my body, my life! i can stay at home alone not only during the day but at night too! i can eat without getting sick! i can drive past a hospital with out thinking i need to go to ER! i can play with my beautiful girls without feeling im about to pass out! its been a very long 2 years. i know to most of you thats not very long but everyday you live in constant fear is a day your not truly living in my opinion. so im so happy and proud to say im finally a PANIC SURVIVOR!!!!!!!! im not saying ill never slip back into depression or have anxious thoughts but im 97% back to me. and im in love with life - my life. to everyone who has not found this yet - keep searching. i lived for 2 years thinking zoloft was "working" but now i know it wasnt working at all. dont be scared to try different medications. everyone is different what works for me might do nothing for you but keep trying. life is precious and beautiful to live full of anxiety. you dont deserve it, your family doesnt deserve it. good luck everyone. and thank each and everyone of you for every blog youve posted. it helps everyone of us to feel we are not alone.

... Congratulations! I really hope a lot of people read this. I think there is a lot of needless suffering because of an irrational fear of medication. Good Luck George |
