Huge pimple on chin just seems to be getting bigger and painful. Managed to squeeze some puss this morning. Tried heated pads, ice and antiseptic wipes. Nothing helps. Had for 4 days.

Took bactrim before and it caused anxiety for about 2 months after taking it. Didn't know I was being prescribed it again and after three doses I had a panic attack and anxiety. I'm almost three weeks off and am still having anxiety and panic. The dr said I had generalized anxiety disorder and have me Paxil 40mg to take. I don't want to try the Paxil because Im afraid of the possible side effects and the withdrawal process if I want to quit the Paxil.

on mothers day 2012 i took a mucinex, just 1 tablet. about 2 hours later i started having a panic attack. i went to see my son who noticed i wasnt myself. he said it was like i was in la-la land. the anxiety continued, intensified, and became more frequent. 3 days later, i couldnt even move out of bed, felt like i was dying and just wanted it to end. my mom convinced me to go to the hospital, and being in my delirious state, forgot to mention taking the mucinex 3 days prior. they gave me 2 ativan and sent me one my way. i dont remember the next 5 days, but apparently it was bad. i got fired from my job for being extremely beligerant and saying some pretty messed up things to customers.(i was a server at a family restaurant.) the really scary part is im a single mom so i was alone with 2 small children and i dont remember a thing. apparently i drove with my children, i tried to run people in walmart over with a bycicle i bought my son for his 6th b-day. i still suffer from anxiety and rarely leave my house. my counselor and i found a site that listed anxiety disorder and seratonin disorder as rare side effects but strangely i can no longer find that article. my doc says symptoms disappear within 12 hours and i of course argued so am currently seeking articles to disprove him.
