Hi, how are you? Thanks for reaching out. What you’re describing sounds like severe anxiety with panic attacks, and the “zoned out” feeling is often an anxiety symptom rather than something dangerous. It’s understandable to be scared about medication, but please don’t let online stories make the decision for you. When prescribed by a psychiatrist, these medicines are usually stopped gradually if needed. One tip: Whenever a panic episode starts, instead of fighting it, remind yourself, “This is anxiety, not danger. It will pass.” Slow your breathing and let the wave settle. Take therapy. You can connect with me on nine two six six seven two six zero six five.

It is understandable to feel worried about starting medication, especially after reading about possible side effects. However, it’s important not to stop, avoid, or change prescribed medication without discussing your concerns with your psychiatrist. Therapy can also help you understand your anxiety, build effective coping strategies, and regain a sense of control over your daily life.

You may consult a psychotherapist directly

Your feelings and concerns about psychiatric medications are completely understandable. Here is a clear guide on how to proceed safely: 1. **Do Not Stop or Delay Medications Abruptly:** Sudden withdrawal or untreated severe anxiety can make panic attacks significantly worse. Always discuss adjustments with your prescribing doctor. 2. **Discuss Your Fears with Your Doctor:** Share your concerns about withdrawal and side effects. They can reassure you, adjust dosages, or outline a clear, gradual tapering plan for the future. 3. **Combine Medication with Therapy:** Psychotherapy (such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) is highly effective for managing derealization and panic symptoms, giving you long-term coping strategies. 4. **Practice Immediate Grounding Techniques:** During episodes, focus on deep, slow breathing (4 seconds in, 4 seconds out) and use the 5-4-3-2-1 sensory technique to anchor yourself in the present. Please schedule a follow-up consultation with your psychiatrist or psychologist soon to align on a treatment plan you feel safe and comfortable with.

This describes severe panic attacks, derealization, chest pain, and intense fear regarding psychiatric medication withdrawals. These symptoms resemble Panic Disorder, Agoraphobia, or severe medication-related anxiety.
