Hellooo, i take 800 UI of vitamin D every morning and doctor has put me on cirtalopram which i take in the evenings. Side effects r tough but hopefully feel better from week 2. Do u take anything?

[granty]

Hey I take citilopram to I'm on 20mg, how does vitamin D help? X

[LittleBlondie]

Im only on 10mg. Wat day r u on? Im on day 4 and still getting side effects. Yea vitamin D has helped a bit. Went for blood test and was low so got them suppliments. I hav found that most ppl wiv anxiety has low vitamin D

[granty]

I've been on them for seven years :(

[LittleBlondie]

Wow thats a long time! Do u remember how long they took to start working for u?

[granty]

Took about 2weeks for symptoms to wear off, what type off anxiety u suffer with? X

[LittleBlondie]

It seems to be when im out. On public transport or in shops etc i for no reason start feeling sick and faint and have to walk out if im in there too long. It got worse and it happens at home sometimes again for no reason. So now dont like going out on my own unless i really have to. Fear of fainting even tho i never have. U?x

[LittleBlondie]

Had tests done and everything was normal so then they put it down to this

[granty]

Bless ya, mines weird I can be fine one minute then the next I feel sick lightheaded etc for no reason although I am a worry arse lol it's horrible though gets ya down x

[granty]

hopefully your feel better real soon once the citiolpram kicks in, although it won't cure you it sure does help x

[LittleBlondie]

Yep it sure does. So have these pills helped u?x

[LittleBlondie]

Thank u. Im thinking positive ive had enough now so gonna fight it aint gonna let it rule my life :)

[granty]

Yeah defo most days I'm fine u always get thebodd few days that you feel rubbish but they help my symptoms a lot and talking about how you feel helps like this app is brilliant I think x

[LittleBlondie]

It is. When i try to explain it to some ppl they look at me like im crazy lol. This site is helping x

[AnxietyInstituteSA]

Breathing techniques really help me to stop my escalation towards a panic attack when I feel one coming on. I've gotten better and better over the years at doing this. I used to have to remove myself from the situation and go to a dark, quiet place to breath. Now, I can do it right where I am and no one even knows I'm doing it. It's a lot of effort but tends to come more naturally over time.

[granty]

Lol not many people know I suffer with it so this is good for me, what other symptoms you get? I'm grant if u hadnt guessed lol x

[LittleBlondie]

Ive never really tried the breathing stuff dont know how to do it lol. Only my family knows i suffer wiv this and no one else notices x

[LittleBlondie]

Who was that last message for? Lol im Rosanne btw x

[granty]

You lol hi Roseanne same as me I'm kind off embarrassed by it, where you from? Breathing does help sometime slow deep breathes 😊 x

[LittleBlondie]

I get little pains in my chest and feels like a lump in my throat/neck but they dont worry me as dont last long. Its just the nausia and faintness feelings and hot flush lol x

[LittleBlondie]

Im from middlesex london. U?x

[granty]

Lol it's rubbish isn't it, you look young so I guess u go out clubbing, don't worry about drinking on these tablets they say u shouldn't but they say that with all tablets, also alcohol is ment to make anxiety worse but I think getting pissed helps lol x

[LittleBlondie]

Oh good i was upset about not drinking my wine at the weekends lol! Im 29 feel old. Use to go clubbing but not been for years. Jus drink at home now or couple down the local x

[LittleBlondie]
