med change for panic disorder, i'm vey short tempered.

Well about a year ago I started taking meds for my panic disorder. I'm still taking the same meds (cipralex) but I mistakenly have been taking double the dose for a month or 2 now. about 3 days ago i noticed this and cut them down to my regular dose.

This has had quite a bad effect on me.

Tbh the panic disorder has gone completely, and i was thinking about slowly comming of the meds anyways. but this quick half from a really high dose is killing me!

Im hot/cold, shaking, I want to tear my skin off and scream. Its gotten worse over the past 3 days, today being the worse so far. Im hoping that it doesnt get any worse.

The think is, while im like this, im still completely rational, not depressed or anything. the only emotion change is that im vey short tempered.

Not everyone will understand why im going to say next but oddly smokers will...

You know the feeling when you need a cigarette so bad, like havent had one all day and something has really angered you. I feel like that but all day! just an empty feeling.

I know you guys cant really help but I just wanted to get it all typed out and chat with people.

Thanks for reading people, have a good one
