Common Questions and Answers about Anti anxiety drugs cats
anxiety
My cat started pooping on the floor because he was over stressed. My daughter has a nack for not leaving the cats alone, and apparently his stress levels were through the roof. His nature was to require a calm, quiet enviornment. Now, I'm not all for drugs, but I had him for 6 years, and having my toddler stressing him out...well, I decided to fix the problem isntead of getting rid of him.
My daughter had to stop chasing him, and I had to put him on an anti-anxiety med, for now.
Okay, now I think I know what you are taking, sertraline, which in the states is Zoloft. Plus your Xanax equivalent. These are medications that are often prescribed for OCD, anxiety, depression. The sertraline can have side effects. What are you feeling like? I don't want to list side affects because I don't want you to start looking for particular one. :) How much Sertraline are you taking and how much alprazolam do you take during the day?
oh...
Your name suggests you keep a cat or cats. And if you are allergic to cats, the reactions can trigger anxiety and panic like symptoms -especially regarding breathing, increased heart rate, etc. That's a stretch, I know it is, but I'm looking at all the suspects here. Otherwise, while that's quite a cocktail of drugs you are taking, they were prescribed by a doctor, so taking then at least as a trial is the right thing to do.
s and had to re home their cats because of this problem and they had their cats on anti depression, anti anxiety, and happy pills and nothing worked.
They spent thousands of dollars taking them to the vets and councillors and still had to give them away because no answer could be found. The last straw was when they brought a 4,000 dollar lounge suite and the cats peed all over the sides and down the back of the cushions all within two days.
Anyone on anti anxiety medication? Or have been for prior pregnancies? I'm 23 weeks and I'm so worried about a lot of things making me sick (I also struggle with OCD and it has gotten really bad the last couple months, I spend a lot of time washing my hands). The worst thing for me is that we've had a cat living with us for the last three months and I am terrified of toxoplasmosis and it has really ruined me as far as my anxiety goes... gahh...
Is there anything I can give her for anxiety that will not hurt her? I have prescription xanax (for myself) and some natural herbal anti-anxiety pills, it is killing me to see the cat so unhappy and nervous, she won't have any face hair by the time my daughter returns! Help, any ideas for something safe to make her more comfortable?
Found this in a search: "Curatex emulsion is an external application cream that has an anti-biotic and a cortisone cover, it's very good for skin condition like eczema."
I also saw another mention of this product being zinc oxide based.
Not knowing the effect of such, I'll leave the info out there for more educated folk than I to comment upon.
ve learned it all passes no matter what in my PERSONAL experience. With or without drugs... anxiety passes. I personally think drugs make things worse for some people, like myself. That's why I'm staying clear and just doing talk therapy.
Talk therapy has taught me a lot about UNDERSTANDING anxiety and how it works, and how the body works. It makes all my symptoms if I ever do go through anxiety, feel like they are nothing but just sensations. They can't harm me..
Hi, I posted a while back about having PVCs and flutters. After a 30 day event Moniter I was told that I have PACs, PVCs, and about 6,000 a day. That seems like a very scary number to me, but my cardiologist said it was still a low number. I have a lot of anxiety about this, and he prescribed me an anti-arrythmia drug to take as needed since I mentioned I'm feeling long runs of the palps happening on and off for hours sometimes. I'm already on a beta blocker.
I have suffered depression all of my life, feeling sad as far back into childhood as I can remember. I spent many, many years self-medicating (alcohol+drugs). I know for me, I have tried 16 different anti-depressants and other than the ones that gave me severe nausea and the ones that made me feel like a walking Zombie (Effexor, Seroquel and Olanzapine), the others did nothing.
thank you for your kind words and i wish you every success with your recovery.
( What should I do?!?!?! Thanks for the tips and suggestions friends!
I am so restless tonight. I am getting where I hate nightime. The house is empty except me, the dog and 3 cats. That goodness for computers and this site.
Is there any medical reason for routinely denying patients anti-anxiety drugs prior to stereotactic core needle biopsy? I thought it was somewhat barbaric to go through the experience with the kind of terror it seems to cause EVERYONE who's ever had it.
My radiologist simply didn't "entertain" the idea of tranquilizers, yet I'm reading about other patients who benefitted from them. Are the doctors truly so unaware of the extraordinary level of stress for their patients?
