I haven't noticed any other fluctuation of emotions.....just this startle reflex.

The thing is I don't feel anxious or "panicky" before or after. It just startles me.....and then it's over. My heartbeat immediately slows after the initial jolt.

I really don't want to start another med unless it just gets so bad that it's affecting my health.
