    Please tell me any side effects you have because of this medication. I have just been prescribed this med for migraines, every day headaches, and high blood pressure.

    Thankyou

    I have panic disorder that has made me agoraphobic (afraid to leave my own home), and a few months ago my doctor gave me some Klonopin. I had a really bad experience on it–it was like a panic attack, but worse, and it lasted for hours. The experience left me scarred, and since then I’ve developed a phobia of all medication–even over-the-counter stuff like Advil. I always think back to that time on Klonopin and imagine every medication will do that to me. Sometimes I psych myself out so much by reading about all the side effects, that I think I imagine getting all the symptoms listed.

    A few weeks ago, I was given Xanax, since I’m still agoraphobic. I broke a pill in half and took that, because I was too scared to take the whole dose. I did fine on it, besides some general nervousness. But even though my experience was alright, I still get nervous trying to take it again. I haven’t been able to since.

    I know this is all in my head, but has anyone else had this phobia, and can you offer any advice on how you got over it? I need to take my medication, but this phobia has been sabotaging my treatment.
