Gina, Are you feeling better? I was concerned when I read your post. I hope the numbness and nausea have subsided. Did you mention one time you take Xanax? I thought you did I could be wrong. I know Xanax wears off very quickly, I took it for about 2 weeks one time and did not like it, it wore off way too quick and the anxiety would come back again. Klonopin lasts longer, the one of found the most helpful was Lorazapam {ativan} it calmed me without making me a zombie and it lasts longer than Xanax. Did the breathing help? I hope so. I am praying for you. I did not start the Paxil yet, I had a pretty good day, a little shaky this afternoon, but worked through it and did NOT take a Klonopin. Get some rest and I know tomm will be better. God bless, Debbie.
