Im a 24 year female, and recently have been prescribed to antidepressants, and xanax for sleep, I tried lexapro, for a week, but I'm paranoid about side effects, and I started to feel very disoriented at night and had side effects such as, muscle twitching, ticking, confusion, wierd vision change, so I told my doctor this and I was exspecially concerned about the muscle twitching, I get it all over my legs, arms sometimes in my cheeks, and sometimes even my abdomen, my doctor kind of shrugged it off thinking it was due to my anxiety and not my meds, but this never happened before my medication, maybe occasionally, but not everyday. I also do fret about the side effects a lot so maybe I am paranoid, but in anycase he changed me over to zoloft, and I'm still experiencing, the twitching, and now I grind my teeth, and it's only been a couple days, but I've been reading that it could be a serious condition, and or this happens to a lot of people at this age. is this something I need to worry about? should I stop the medication? I also have been having wierd dreams where I feel like Im falling the past two nights that I've been on the zoloft,and I have to wake up startled and feeling like I could faint Im so weak. thats what it felt like the first night when it happened like I was fainting in my dream, and when I jolted awake, I had to catch myself from falling off the bed. I just want some real answers to my concerns. I want to trust my doctor but, Im not sure anymore. can anyone help me??
thank you
