I"m gonna pretend you're name is Ray Allen, back when you were kicking butt for the Celtics.

Ray, wow, I'm a big fan. Magic 3-pointer man. Kinda betrayed, but also bummed to see you in this condition. I tried zoloft for two days (was cold turkeying off amatryptaline and going thru a breakup) and those three things lead to my first and only (so far, so help me god) panic attack.

Doc took me off zoloft. my therapist (not a prescriber) really wanted me to see a psychiatrist though i was terrified of meds after that experience. He started me very, very slowly on lexapro which is good for both depression and anxiety, and is less stimulating than zoloft, so he said. I'd try to see a psychiatrist. Even if they tell you all your symptoms are due to anxiety not a head injury, they may be better/more careful with the meds than a GP. that's been my experience anyway.

I think the lexapro has helped a bit so far--i'm on a very small dose, 5mg, and in week 3 of that dose, week 5 total. Depression and anxiety were great for the last week until my massage therapist pressed to hard on my head and so i'm sorta freaked out and either experiencing or imagining worsening symptoms.

anyway, one other person on here, laupaula (or something) is taking lexapro and feels it's helped as well

good luck. and come back to Boston.
