New and 4 days of ongoing anxiety attacks

Hi All,
Ive suffered from anxiety for years and was on celexa but came off about a year ago..it had worked really well for me and now my anxiety has come back tenfold. I started on the celexa 5 days ago at a higher dose and Im now having the worst anxiety/panic attacks ever. My palms and feet are constantly sweating, no appetite, sleep disturbances, fearful, weak and disoriented. Its an effort just to get out of bed. I had my worst panic attack 3 days ago and ended up in the ER...all tests came back normal but now Im left with all of these symptoms. I dont know if its my body adjusting to the meds or what but I didnt end up feeling like this the last time I was on it...Im wondering if its the higher dose (I was on 10 mg/day and am now on 20 mg after a year break.) Anybody have any experiences like this?

Welcome

My dr. put me on a lower dose starting yesterday and prescribed me some ativan which has helped a little. I have to return to work tomorrow after taking 3 days off and Im a little nervous about it, it's a very fast paced job and Im relatively new at it. I dont know how Im going to handle it with these symptoms still occurring here and there...it seems like Ill be fine for a little while and then it all comes back.
