I totally understand. After I had covid, I woke up one morning with heart palpitations. Went to the ER three mornings in a row. Long story short, they put me on carvedilol and a little later Prozac. After all the heart tests everything is normal. So I was on carvedilol for 1 month and Prozac for 9 days. Stopped both cold turkeys and started having adrenaline rushes and anxiety every morning around 3, it wakes me up. And the feeling stays with me most of the day after that. Not sure if I'm still having withdrawals after 3 weeks or is this just my new normal. It's an awful thing. I wish I had answers for you but I'm in a mess too. All I can do is pray.

I, too, experience the anxiety and adrenaline rushes all day. I’ve been dealing with digestive issues for the past 2 years and Covid exacerbated everything. I just started taking Lexipro and I hope it will help. I’m seeing a therapist as well and he’s a functional medicine practitioner too. I’m taking an adrenal support supplement. Hope that helps too. All I can do is try to deal with this and pray I find medical/psychological help. I hope you find something that works for you as well. It’s hard to live in these weird bodies.
