> Hey guys, I know I'm a very frustrating person. And according to my doctors a very complicated person due to existing medical conditions like elevated ANA. I've tried all the popular AD's and antianxiety meds and at first the benzos worked and now they don't. I've gone to various pdocs and even put myself into the hospital in hopes of I guess a miracle but no change. Things keep getting worse. I used to be such a high achiever, and the best psych RN but now I'm afraid to be alone in the house or go out by myself. My husband has had it and I have too. Even if you don't believe it I have no Taste or Smell. Went to DC to a specialist, one of only in world and he wants to try Theophylline. I'm scared. Does anyone know how this feels? Think of putting a food you like in your mouth and nothing. I used to be so out going. Now I'm to scared to do a thing. Anyone have any ideas? Now we may have to move to Florida for my husband to get a job? I need to get help now or I'll never make it. So Please help if you can. I try to excercise and sit still but I can't. Too scared of what? I don't know. Don't say get a new pdoc I think I've been to all of them in the area. And when you go to a specialist with a medical problem they say depression and anxiety isn't my specialty.Fondly, Phillipa
Sounds like temporal lobe issues and if you are not on an AED that would be my suggestion. If you are that nervous I would go with Depakote. It sounds like you have some rapid cycling and mania issues. Good Luck
