@anxiouslisa The days I take 150mg, I feel ok mostly but on the days I take 75mg I can tell by the end of the day that things are right. Today is a 75 mg day and it's about 3pm here. I feel ok except for a headache which may not be related. But later tonight will be when I feel bad. Day before yesterday I felt very dizzy, like feeling that I needed to reach out and grab the wall at times. It's very scary and people that haven't been through it don't understand. I'm thinking I might try doing 75 each day by the end of this week. I've been switching them for about 2 weeks.
Trying to act normal is very exhausting. I know people that say oh yea I have anxiety too....but they are out doing things that I know I can't do, smh after this experience I am not going back on anything. It's just too scary. I'm thinking of trying CBD oil.
