Hi, I found this on the web by chance, I am still not sure that this is all that applies in my case. I was a normal person and then out of the blue I had a general sense that something medically was wrong with me. ON several occasions I though I was having a heart attack. I have recd some blood work and as I never had a doctor, I found one, ALl they suggested is anxiety and panic attacks. This confuses me as I wasn't living a stressful live at all. The only thing thing that is now causing me to have anxiety is the stress in not knowing what medical problem I have. They gave me Paxil CR which I took cause I wasn't coping. THe attacks went away but it came with alot of scary stuff. I tried to get off of it, and tonight went through some sick thoughts and crying bouts so I failed and took one tonight.
Based on the short version of it all, does this sound like anxiety problems or could I be right and being misdiagnosed.
I am so confused as this shot out of the blue and I can't snap out of it. My mind is telling me that I being brought done a path I don't belong in. I could see if I had stress etc. that I may have developed problems but that's not the case.
The only problems was that I started feeling sick - medically- and when I went to search for answers, noone had any for me. I keep thinking that if they found the medical problem, then my stress would go away.
I am also scared that I will not get better and that now I am stuck on Paxil.
If anyone has any idea or anything I would really appreciate it.
