Thanks for the response. Ok let's see. We had an interesting relationship. She always had something to say about my weight and would always put me down for it. She was a cold person at times (up til she got sick and my grandpa passed in 2013). However, her was of showing love was buying things...

Ok everyone. I am not getting defensive. I am getting angry. Clearly I am explaining how these issues occurred recently along with anxiety and panic attacks which I never suffered from before. The fact that my sex issue is starting right after being diagnosed with GAD and panic is not a...

No. My relationship was find and my boyfriend was supportive and there for me during that difficult time. I guess it would come up when I would think about seeing my boyfriend. I would start thinking "ok sex today" and for some reason would feel anxious. I really can't pinpoint anything except...

Thank you for a decent answer. Ok so this is basically how it happened. April, would get anxious thinking about sex. May, would feel a bit weird after sex but couldn't figure out the weird sensation (still had the anxiety before sex), and now have panic attacks after. I'm anxious to have sex...

Let me be very clear on something. That is something I block out of my mind. Not due to the trauma but I've had so many other issues come about after that, that's at the bottom of my list. The fact that I had a perfectly good sex life and as soon as my anxiety started and I started meds that my...

No, I do not have any trauma related to sex from childhood. Nothing bad happened to me as a child to cause me trauma so there is nothing to talk about

Yes, I am still on meds. What's weird is I didn't have this until recently. Just doesn't make sense to me

my anxiety started in March after my grandma passing. It's a pretty long story of misdiagnosis and random panic attacks. Finally led to me being put on meds and I'm still in the trial and error stage. I have noticed as my anxiety progresses, I have anxiety about sex and when having sex. At...

Thanks for the reply. My doctor lowered me to 12.5 for now because the side effects I was having on the 25 were too much for me to handle. I'm hoping it helps

Thank you all for your replies. I was on an SNRI years ago for depression and had no issues when I was on it or coming off it. The only issue I remember was some bad headaches that eventually went away.

My grandma passed away in March. I believe that was the tip of the iceberg for me. The past few years I've experienced a lot of traumatic events. Pretty sure my grandma passing just pushed me over the edge and got me where I am now

Thanks appreciate it. This is my third ssri and as the days go on, I feel more and more hopeless and feel worse and worse. I just want my life back

No it's not that I don't want to hear that. I appreciate the response. Totally agree that I need to do some exposure to get myself out again. However, my panic attacks and anxiety aren't from being out. They just happen randomly, lately panic attacks at night so that's what I feel I need meds...

My anxiety started the beginning of April. Went to my doctor and was told it was vertigo because at that point I was just feeling dizzy and off balance. As days passed, I began to have panic attacks and increased anxiety. My general doctor prescribed me Xanax to take as needed. Even after only...

Sorry just seeing this now. My side effects started the second day. I had even worse anxiety than I did before taking the medication. I had more panic attacks as well. I couldn't eat or sleep and was constantly nauseous. I dreaded waking up the next day cause I knew I had to take the Prozac. It...
