Waking Up Early Feeling Panicky And Scared
A MyDepressionTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi for the past few months I have been waking earlier than is normal for me in a state of high anxiety and panic. This happened after being off all medication for awhile and then being put on imipramine. This is ruining my life, I wake up feeling so panicky and depressed that I cry every morning and it ruins the whole day.

I have been put on a lot of medication . To begin with I felt awful. So had a word with my Doctor. Now I just feel groggy but it takes time. Def see your Doctor.

This is why I stopped taking fkn anti-depressants. Hun, trust me when I say that you are

Do you remember how you felt being off them? And is it because of your anxiety that you were prescribed the med? x

I constantly wake up in the middle of the night before work in a state of panic and fear. I wish it would go away, but it happens more often than not. I even have this problem when napping too. I have this awful fear that I am going to fail, or that something bad is going to happen. It's a dreaded fear.

I understand! I was feeling that way for weeks until my Dr put me on Buspar. It has worked like a charm so far.
