Anxiety and Panic Attacks - Trazadone
Has anyone had anxiety and panic attacks while taking Trazadone?
Anxiety Question:
Has anyone had anxiety and panic attacks while taking Trazadone? I take Trazadone at night to help me sleep but in the morning and through the day I sometimes get panic attacks.
I don't eat a lot anyway and I’m wondering if this may have something to do with it or I may have a panic attack disorder or anxiety disorder or both or something else is going on with me.
I also take topamax for migraines and lipitor.
Anxiety Answer:
Trazadone is a great medication used for short periods of time. It is effective, but highly addictive. You should be using it under a doctor's supervision, and s/he should tell you everything you need to do about it.
Your anxiety attack is probably unrelated to your sleep cycles.
Don't assume you have a disease if you have anxiety. It could be normal symptoms, and could be a side effect of the medication.
That's why it's good to get off of it as soon as you can.
Talk to the doctor about it.
