Worked like a miracle till I wake up in the middle of the night freaking no out. I felt totally disassociated. Can't explain it except to daub it was like a bad acid trip. Still feel foggy two days later. Anyone else have this experinece? Very weird
this is strange because beta blockers are supposed to reduce anxiety. i've had a few propans here and there but the circumstances and other drugs surrounding them didn't really give me an accurate picture of how they behave in my brain. my unsolicited advice is to log this event and continue to take the medication if you want to, and if you have more incidences bring them to your doctor, and if you decide to stop taking it bring this incident to him/her as the reason. if that is a regular or even occasional side effect clearly that medication is not for you. broadly speaking, the best thing you can do before you walk into your doctor's office is arm yourself with information about your condition, the medicine you're on, and the medicine you might like to replace it with. knowledge is power. take part in your pharmaceutical selection.
