:I started zoloft on a very light dosage, since I heard that for :anxiety you typically don’t need that much but I was also suffering :from depression as a result of the anxiety.  I started off at :12.5mgs.. for 2 weeks and recently I’ve worked my way up to 25mgs. :The first two days on 25mgs were blissful, but now I’m suffering an :immense headache followed by feelings of guilt and self-loathing, :boredom and incredible loneliness.  I also tried working out after I :took the pill and that didn’t work at all, I nearly passed out after :just doing my typical workout, it was also about 99degrees outside but :I work out in an air conditioned gym.  After hittin the weights I just :felt INCREDIBLY bad, headaches, dizziness, mental confusion, severe :irrational anxiety, I just wanted to curl up in a ball or kill myself. : Now the feelings are waning but I still do really,really,really want :to die. I know, I know I can just take a bunch of pills and end :it…but that’s too slow.  I need a rifle or something to end it fast :and painless, but I have no rifle..I’m too young to purchase one.  So :I’ll just continue living…regretfully. Dear Cain, Please call your doctor immediately to let him know you are feeling suicidal. It is very important that you reach out to someone in real life so they can help you through this bad time. The answer is NOT suicide, it is a "permanent" solution to temporary problems. Many of us here have felt the way you do, luckily we hung on to the hope that it could get better and it did. I know you don`t believe that right now, but trust me, you won`t feel like this forever. Please check this out! http://panicdisorder.about.com/library/crisis/blcrisis.htm?PM=ss13_pa… Take care and please hang in there and most importantly, call your doctor NOW!
