Just asking for others experiences I guess.
I have been taking Paroxetine 60mg for three years due to depression & it works wonderfully. I have a history of bouts of panic attacks (both when my children were born lasting about a year each time). Panic attacks would include dizziness, limb tingling, headaches etc. I've never sought medication for them before as I recognised what they were, spoke with my GP & worked myself through them with mindfulness etc.
However during the last few months they've returned (no pregnancy, new children etc) & I believe they're related to lockdown etc. GP prescribed propanol 40mg up to 3 times a day. The few times I have taken it I feel like I'm restless, I can't sleep & just can't settle. Different from how my panic attacks present. Not being able to get to sleep & staying awake for 24h is a nightmare with children & working.
Has anybody else experienced similar?
Sorry this turned into a ramble!
