Been having extremely bad debilitating anxiety lately, to the point where it’s interfering with my work and school starting. My hands get so sweaty I can barely hold things and I feel like I can’t breathe anymore. I have no idea what the main cause is but have added Prozac into my daily meds (which are Wellbutrin,Trileptal and Seroquel) 7ish weeks ago. This anxiety started probably about 2 weeks ago. When I talked with my psychiatrist this morning about it she wanted me to stop taking the Prozac and start taking 0.5 of Ativan daily. I usually take 1mg-1.5mg during panic attacks. My main concern is not developing a dependency on it. Is that a high enough dose where at a daily level I’ll need it until I ween myself off? My family all has issues with drug dependence and addiction so the thought of it scares me to be honest. Sorry if this makes me sound like a pussy or anything I just want to make sure that I can do this in the most healthy concise way.
