>So then I went to a doctor and got Zoloft and took one pill and got even worse panic
This is not likely happen-it takes week for an SSRI to build up in the body. It was probably coincidence that you had panic symptoms when taking the pill.
>It's like a constant panic attack with feelings of dread, and despair and paranoia all at once. I also can't stop thinking about death.
Welcome to the world of Panic Disorder.
>I took the Zoloft (a single dose of 10mg) 5 days ago and am still having really bad cycling anxiety. What I want to know is, will this wear off, and how long will it take???
As stated earlier, 10 mg of Zoloft is not enough to trigger panic attacks. What you are feeling of a new Panic Disorder-which can present suddenly and without mercy.
I'm willing to bet your new panic symptoms are present because you stopped the Celexa and Zoloft which were probably affording you protection from the panic symptoms.
The most sensible thing would be to continue taking the Ativan while you restart the Zoloft or the Celexa.
One pill of Zoloft is not going to make your panic symptoms worse.
