But here in the last few months I have been experiencing anxiety bad. It started out just when I drove. now its all the time. I obsess trying to find something to help me it just started bad when i started my period and I went to the doc and he gave me zoloft which I will never take again it kept me up all night! I have strange symptoms such as anxiety, panic attacks, feeling detached,hopelessness, obsessive thoughts I have no appetite . I have felt this way for about 10 days can someone help me. could it be hormomal? Will it go away?

HI,
Although hormonal issues like PMS can cause mood changes, your symptoms seem to be slightly more. Hence I suggest try meditation and yoga to calm down. Also you can try seeking help from a psychological counsellor and a change of drug may also help. Consult your Doctor.
Hope this helps.
