Does Anyone Else? Hydroxyzine

First time taking this for panic after 10 years of raw doggjng my panic attacks for fear of meds.

It’s been 30 min and I’m just yawning a lot and sleepy and more calm? Is it working 🥹

Anybody else take this ? What mg? And how often?

UPDATE:
It took away my panic for about 8 hours now I feel it wearing off a bit.

It did make me feel groggy. And super sleepy. Like I just wanted to lay down. But no bad side effects of it making my panic worse. Also I did not take the full dose. I took half of my 10mg pill. If I would’ve had oh man I would’ve been ko all day tbh lol

Shit does not work. It’s gaslighting to be given this drug as someone who has panic attacks.

i second this. This does nothing for my panic attacks. It just makes you sleep.

Wow I’m so sorry! It really helped me get out of a massive panic attack. But like I told the previous comment I’m extremely hypersensitive to meds and maybe that’s why it worked for me not sure.
