You're right i"m awfully scared so I know that is not helping me distinguish betweem anxiety of meds versus anxiety due to meds. I don't deal well with anxiety or know how to control it when it's happening. I've been having insomnia off all meds for a while. Had gotten somewhat used to it, but a week or so back, it got worse. Then first night on the EMSAM it was anxiety added to that making it worse. I didn't know emsam acted so quickly. Does it seem unreasonable for me to say "within half hour, i seem to get more anxiety" and that insomnia was worse at first night itself? I took it off last night and felt a little better (i swear within half hour or so)...not totally, but a little. Over the night gradually more toward a.m., i relaxed more and did get some sleep. So I don't know. When I talk to doc, I will have to ask her for something to help me sleep as that's always been part of my problem.
