waking up to anxiety attack
waking up to anxiety attack
I've just woke up in anxiety - about an hour ago I had half bottle of an energy drink, and I went to sleep feeling sick coz I had eaten.
I do have conference next week which is stressing me out
I doubt it'll be my new tablets I've been on em 4 days and I've had em before and there same MG as my old ones - unless I ask GP to go back onto prozac.
Other it could jus be coz I haven't had a drink 2nd night

The energy drinks could be dehydrating and is not a good thing when coming off alcohol. Fruit juice and Gatorade(not sure if you get those in UK) would be better choices. I found when I first started taking this new anti-depressant that I'm on it increased my anxiety the first couple days then went away.

I wanted to have some coffee today but everything I've read about detox/withdrawals say excessive sugar/caffeine will prolong things so Camomile Tea is the stuff I'm pounding now... not the best idea for energy but it sure does relax you. I think for work tomorrow (first day back since my last drink) I am going to try some unsweetened cranberry/grapefruit juice/club soda mix and see how that goes.

Energy drinks aren't good for a person, somebody just died over here in my area drinking energy drinks---heart gave out and she was young, not old. I don't think they have been tested or regulated since they are a drink and not a food. I'd stay away from them. In fact, I've never drank one in my life.
club soda = seltzer water or carbonated water, I don't know what it's called in the UK.
tea or coffee is ok for you, water is better. Some people suggest orange juice and honey

Ditto on the caffieen and even nicoteen being bad for the anxiety I find in me it brings in on much stronger it it is already there and will bring it out sometimes if it is absent. I am not sure if that makes sense but basically it sends your mind a mile a minute and makes that feeling in your shoulders/back worse. I don't know if you get that one but I do. I stick with lots and lots of water because otherwise I get dehdrated pretty quickly and that makes everything worse as well.
