I have both ADHD and anxiety disorder. I am prescribed WellbutrinXL, Focalin 60mg and Ritalin 20-30mg, and now Xanax .5mg. I never knew about my anxiety because when I started focalin I was on wellbutrin XL. I was on wellbutrin just for depression and since my despression alleviated I stopped it. Big mistake
Two weeks later, after the wellbutrin was out of my system, I thought I was having heart attacks. Every day, I would literally faint and my heart was poiunding out of control. I called the ambulance like a thousand times. They told me it was just anxiety. None of this made sense. Until my mom told me to start wellbutrin xl again. Well everything is back to normal, except three days ago when I relapsed!!!!
Since I take stimulant medication people with anxciety are not advised to take magnesium and calcium as it makes the drug much more potent. I literally thought I was going to die, my pulse went up to 140 and I called the ambulance. She said, it was definately high (she remembered me from the other 10 calls) and told me to relax. After 5 minutes of talking to her, My pulse went down to 88 and I walked back home.
Well now I am 100% fine and stable. The wellbutrin XL helps with anxiety and I am starting xanax .5mg soon just incase if I have anbother episode. However, my chest hurts so bad!!!!!
I can hardly move my arm. It is so sore. It feels like after you go the the gym and you overworked yourself. No anxiety, pulse 66-70. Blood pressure very good. I did research online and peop,e who have panic attacks get really sore. Any avaliable over the counter medications that helps with the msucle tension. It is obvious the stimulants cause all fo these panic attacks, but either way I get them because I start drinking 10-12 cups of coffee. Thanks
