Are Symptoms Hormone Related ???? Posted: 05-29-06 00:33am
I have just joined this forum looking for
anyone who has similar symptoms to me. I
have been diagnosed with gad in january
and have been on lexapro for approx 5
months. The side effects (not much) have
subsided, however at that time of the
month (sorry !!) anything can set off my
anxiety and I feel terrible again.
The other night I had a yucky dream /
nightmare and the next morning I started
worrying about it and hot flushes came on
and constricted chest etc etc etc. Then
I start wondering if my heart is actually
ticking.
I then usually have a good cry about it
because the bottom line is that I am
terribly scared. Generally it then goes
away after I have a cry.
