C - what are those drugs you posted about? Are the SSRI's or tranquilizers? What is their "brand" name? (i.e. prozac, xanax, etc?) Are you doing the CBT program on here? I have barely scratched the surface with it, but feel its helping already. Thanks for talking to your friends. Remember, be gentle with me! If someone told me right now "your symptoms are exactly what my friend who has MS had..." I think I would drop right off the edge of my sanity. KWIM? Here are my symptoms, for what its worth: On any given day, I may or may not feel one or some of the following symptoms. It may come for a few minutes, or a couple hours, then go away for days before returning. Constant anxiety and worry about my health and my symptoms Obsessed with MS, brain tumor, neuro diseases Tingling in right leg Tight, stiff, "useless" feeling in my right arm, leg, or both Tingling fingertips on left side, usually only one finger, just the verrrry tip Twitching in face Headaches Muscle cramps (random) Visual issues (seeing spots) Buzzing feeling in left hand, left foot, occasionally random parts of body Crying jags, panic attacks Panic attacks: Sudden feeling of being "off" Sudden intense fear, that something is gravely wrong with me Dizzy, lightheaded, off balance Sudden urge to cry, or call 911 Feeling like I am "losing my mind" or "going crazy" AP

Hi everybody, I finally went to my DR and she gave me a prescription for cipralex escitalopram, I soooo dont want to take it because I have a fear I will freak out or something, oh well, I told her about this website and she felt that cbt and meds are what I need. I feel fine today though, I just am so scared to take it......does anyone else take this? Christine Antipanic- I'm still waiting for my friends to get back to me....I will post on the main discussion board... C
