anxiety
"I have been experiencing terrible anxiety/panic attacks over the last year or so.  It all began with my husband's motorcycle accident that led to PTSD followed by panic attacks.  Horrific.  I landed in the ER on two separate occasions convinced I was going to die.  Now that my husband is back to normal I was hoping my anxiety would go away but that is not the case.  I am seeing a therapist and a psychiatrist prescribed Effexor and I had really scary reaction to it--like a panic attack on crack.  I have sensitivity to SSRIs, it seems.  So, now I take Lorazepam as needed and it does help me calm down and is especially useful at bedtime.  I only take .5 and it has helped a lot when I've needed to stop the racing thoughts before bed."
