I saw a psychiatrist for the first time on Monday and she diagnosed me with generalized anxiety disorder.
She prescribed me Celexa to take once everyday, Xanax for panic attacks, and Zyprexa for nights when my mind just won't shut off. I haven't gotten the medication yet because she wanted me to get an EKG and my blood to get tested first. I was not looking forward to getting my blood drawn at all. Shots don't bother me that much but something about the process of getting my blood taken freaks me out immensely. I've always managed to avoid it, but I really want my mental health to improve so I just could not bail out this time. Thankfully, I got it over with today and hopefully my results show that I'm healthy.
I was just wondering if anyone has taken Celexa and/or Zyprexa, and what your experience was like with them? Did you find that they helped increase your quality of life at all? I appreciate all your honest feedback.
