Okay, what the fuck is up with the recent bout of panic attacks I've been having recently?  I'm supposed to be taking medication to deal with these things.   When I was taking the 40 mg of Paxil, the panic attacks were few and far between.  For a while the depression wasn't around on that dosage as well.  When the depression returned, the doc suggested I up the Paxil to 60 mg.

I've been on the higher dosage for about 10 days now.  While I am seeing a little improvement as far as the depression, I'm having recurring panic attacks now.  This is definitely not cool!  I was completely miserable driving to Kara's Christmas program yesterday and I was feeling so jittery this morning that I didn't go to Sarah's wedding.  I'm not totally upset about missing the wedding, I'm more upset about the attacks coming back.

Since I've been taking the full 60 mg in one dose every morning, I'm going to stagger the pulls to throughout the day and see if that helps.  I take 3 20mg pills each morning, so I'm going to spread it out to 2 in the morning and 1 in the evening.  I'll see if that helps any.
