Well after years of not taking SSRI I went to Dr. last week and requested a script. I was having no depression that i could tell but am having panic attacks almost daily. Ativan seemed to work on an as needed basis but didnt want to take it everyday. My mother committed suicide last year and while I feel like I came out of it intact. I notice that the last 6 mos or so I have a low tolerance for peoples,for a lack of a better term "Bull Crap". And I have been getting overwhelmed quickly.Seem to be forgetting things often. Like my minds 5 steps ahead and I forget to do steps 1-2. So last week after 3 days on zoloft i couldnt handle the stomach and gastro instestinal side effects. Yesterday I starfted Lexapro. My Dr. thought the side effects (especially sexual) might be easier for me. Horrible sleep last night but when I did sleep dreams were intense. I guess my questions are 1) Normal to feel a little disconnected from life/world? 2) Very jittery today. Will this go away? Thx in advance for any input.
