How Can Severe Anxiety While Suffering From Bipolar Disorder Be Treated?

Hello, I have BPD with depression and for 3 days I did not take my medication (Sertraline 150 mg) because I ran out and did not have the time to refill it. I ve been on a roller coaster ever since. I feel like I m going crazy and I m scared I might hurt someone; paranoid as well. I have been crying and laughing at the same time. Cannot tell the difference anymore. What should I do about this?

Hi,

You should immediately contact your psychiatrist and try to refill your sertraline as early as possible. You are now having symptoms of withdrawal of sertraline. Better not to wait more because this can harm you as well as others. So consult a psychiatrist immediately and start your sertraline.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
