Was you anxious about starting new meds the first time you took them by any chance?

Usually they take about 2 Weeks unfortunately. When you have panic attacks how do you stop them BC once I get to a certain point I can't come back from it and totally lose it and go to the er

Some people say it takes 2 to 6 weeks until they get in your system to feel better

Tell the panic attack 'Is that your worst?'

My doctor has prescribed me Prozac and some other pill for anxiety.. I haven't taken any of them because I get more anxiety thinking of the possible side effects.. It's an endless circle. Lol 😕
