Yesterday evening it wasn't too bad but this morning has felt dreadful again. Though not as bad as the previous morning. I did not take any ritalin since I don't want to make it any worse.Middle of the night I woke and could not sleep further. Laying in bed felt very uncomfortable and troublesome and wanted to get up to distract myself. Breathing is still heavy at times.
Toothache has subsided. I did see a dentist yesterday and told me to give it a day or two.
My anxiety normally is NEVER this bad under normal circumstances. Anafranil clearly having a negative impact so far. Also my general mood is quite negative, darker, bit dysphoric perhaps. The passage of time feels very slow. I feel I just want the day to pass and be over with. I feel I just want relief. It is painful like this. I don't feel tired or low energy the way I normally did prior to Anafranil. I feel more awake but I think it's likely much due to all the anxiety. There is a great deal of discomfort within me that is difficult to describe. Very low appetite too.
It's bad enough that I keep considering giving up. The more peaceful SSRI type effect might be more ideal. I don't know. It's hard to think right now. I may give 20mg a try tonight but it's difficult to tolerate this. I might resort to taking Gabapentin to take the edge off or possibly magnesium. Perhaps I will just resort to taking gabapentin every day in order to give Anafranil a proper trial. I hope this is just a case of feeling worse before feeling better.
> I doubt your toothache has anything at all to do with meds. You should see a dentist. Mild toothaches turn nasty when an inflamed tooth gets abcessed.
