Having experienced ongoing anxiety and panic attacks they made life pretty terrible but though therapy and meds I'm in a much better place, however I think I will be on meds for a very long time if not permanently. Fortunately I have few side effects and am not that worried about having them part of my life.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Nobody wants that sort of life to return and worrying about it happening is only natural.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>May I ask why you are tapering of? You sort of implied they had been effective and were very worried about what would happen wihtout them. To go from a stable life to the unknown does seem a pity unless there is a pressing need to change.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Whenever one ceases a medication it is often done slowly under the constant supervision of the prescriber. I suggest you remain in constant contact and sing out if symptoms start to return</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>If you would like to let us know how you get on that would be great</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Croix</P> Mon, 08 Sep 2025 14:33:21 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/panic-attacks/m-p/613858#M53682 Croix 2025-09-08T14:33:21Z
