Felt Great For 4 Days Then Bam Anxiety Attack!! Posted: 11-01-07 17:36pm
One day i woke up and i felt like my old
self,i really felt great so that day i
stopped taking my St Johns Wort supplement
that i had been taking for 3 weeks.For
four days i felt great even without taking
the St Johns Wort and then today i was
getting ready to put a CD in my stereo to
listen to and i could feel that feeling i
hoped would'nt return,the anxiety started
to build up in my stomach,my head started
feeling weird and i had to sit down and
focus on my breathing to get things under
control which even now i still don't feel
right,(Heavy Headed Head in clouds
feeling).Could this have been caused by
not taking the St Johns Wort for 4
days?Could my body have built up enough St
Johns Wort in my system to sustain me for
the 4 days and then suddenly have run out
and put me into withdrawl causeing the
anxiety symptoms to return.This is really
starting to anoy me,i thought everything
was over then WHAM right back to the way i
was (Not feeling right i mean).I still
have'nt taken any St Johns Wort yet today
and i just dont feel right.Thanks For any
help anyone can give me,Keith..

You know, anxiety attacks really just come
and go like that. And the strangest things
can bring them on- it may have been the
St. John's wort, or maybe not.

I agree with Georgia59 about the St.
John's wort. Just like any medication, you
have to be careful with herbs too. Hope
you get to the bottom of this and start
feeling better.
