Isn't there anyone you could phone to come and sit with you in the meantime?

Evesmama · 25/04/2005 22:17

i was also on them but they didnt work?

just looked on the normal side effects and blacking out doesnt seem to be one of them??
id call A&E as thats what theyd tell you to do iff too many taken and although youve just had normal amount, they are effecting you badly and need to be out!
drink lots of water, to try and 'dilute' the drug

Why not? If you're worried they will recognise you, trust me there are lots of staff. I've never knowingly met the same two ambulance staff in my career. Please call. What about the GP. Do something.

Esbee?

Fimbo · 25/04/2005 22:22

Anorak seems to know her, but looks like she has gone to bed - anyone else?

The drug could be having a more sedative effect because its late and you're tired.

Flossam · 25/04/2005 22:29

No not sleep Esbee. You are not well. Are your kids there?

Lustral is an SSRI. They are known to induce panic attacks however it is virutually impossible to overdose on them however they can be sedative. Have you taken anything else?

I took them a few years ago and found them horrible. They induced headaches and make me very sleepy and panicky. Side effects will disappear after 2-4 weeks but I gave up on them after a few days.

Flossam · 25/04/2005 22:37

Where are you Esbee? Would the GP not come and see you if they knew no-one else could? Are you feeling better at all?
