I've been gone from the board for over a month, busy starting a new business (yeay!). However, the stress and excitement of this process has exacerbated my GAD, and although my trusty Klonopin has kept the panic and anxiety mostly under control, the non-stop thinking is back and now the insomnia!! I've never felt so creative in years, but I CANNOT shut off my brain! I keep forgetting things, forget what I'm saying,talk fast, always seem to have 3 or 4 diff thoughts in my head at once. I'm writing so much stuff down I've got paper everywhere!! I'm really getting exhausted (up at 5am working 11 hour days). So my anticipatory anxiety thoughts are back, as is my need to constantly be planning....symptoms of GAD that Klonopin does not address, that had gone away when on Celexa. No, I'm not Bi-polar btw. Just can't focus due to stress and responsibility and excitement. My Psych wants to me try Manerix, he feels that this is not just the everyday stress associated with starting a new business, but classic GAD symptoms geting worse due to a stressful period.
Anybody out there tried Manerix for this purpose?
Pro's/Con's? Side effects.
Thanks as usual.
