Are there good medications that help combat obsessive thinking? Is this more from anxiety or depression? (I guess they are almost hand-in-hand).
I've lost about 2 years of my life obsessing. I was on paxil and fine for 5 years.
I had a breakthrough panic attack that lasted about 8-10 hours (not the typical 10min peak)
Ever since I think I feel weird. Every experience is different and weird, and I obsess about how I feel every second of the day, and the answer is always "I feel weird".
I thought that my head felt weird. Saw every doctor in the world with no results. A neuro and a opthamologist thought I might have (atypical migraine,w/o pain).
She prescribed nortriptyline about a 1.5 years ago, but only took it for a week. I just started it again.
I've been on lexapro 10mg for about a year, with no success, just upped it to 20mgs.
Any ideas?
