I've recently started taking Zoloft again for anxiety and have been having some very rough times. Tire, more anxiety, frustration. Then my husband gets upset that I have started medication again after getting off of Effexor. He says the meds make me "crazy" and he doesn't know who I'll be from one minute to the next....I don't feel that way....I feel better on the meds. He told me that "you just need to change the way you think and quit being nervous all the time." I told him it was a chemical imbalance and that it wasn't any different than a diabetic needing insulin. He rolled his eyes. His attitude is just adding to my anxiety. I go see my doctor in about an hour to discuss my options. I told my husband when my appt. was and at first he got all defensive and said he didn't want to go because he had his ideas and they didn't match the doctors and he'd say the wrong thing. Well then this morning he asked when my appt. was and said he'd try to be there. I told him not to worry about being there unless he wanted to. So not sure if he'll be there or not. I'm so tired of waking up in the morning nervous. As the day goes on it gets better, but mornings are hell. Plus that just adds to my IBS-D.
