I was having a panic attack/anxiety attack/whatever and I couldn’t breathe and I kept crying and I just ran out of my klonopin (but even that isn’t meant to treat ATTACKS, it’s got a longer half life) and i knew i had some Librium around so I took that. It’s 10 mg. I just took it about 2 minutes ago so I’m not feeling anything.
Since the medication is about 7 years old, has it "gone bad"? Should I take more?
I have a few other meds around but I can’t remember what they are.
And please, do not suggest that I go to the emergency room or call an ambulance unless you are ready to pay the bills for it.
The crying had stopped at the time I took the medication but I still had a lot of trouble breathing.
Within about 20 minutes all the symptoms completely disappeared. Could be placebo effect or just natural ending of the episode, who knows. I think it was probably the librium though.
I am dizzy and tired now though, but more relaxed. I may even be able to sleep.
Thanks for those who took me seriously.
