It is really confusing and difficult to pinpoint what the exact cause of the panic attacks are - seems like a lot of posts indicate Lithium helps with anxiety, so I am hoping my dose just isn't high enough. But I'm with you on the brain fog- I get a couple hours of day of feeling really spaced out, can't imagine what a higher dose of the Lithium will do. But one thing I know for sure, I'd much rather deal with the foggy brain than these panic attacks. They are brutal!
I'm going to stick with it, and the Seroquel, and see what my PDOC says. I really feel that there is no perfect drug out there and thus far the Lithium and Seroquel are helping me, now if we can just kill the panic attacks, I might be good to go for a while.
I'll look forward to what med you decide to try next and how it works for the panic.
Take Care.
