[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 469982, member: 1514"] Odd Lisa...when I came home from the hospital I had the same reaction. Mine was worse because the stores had items that seemed to be talking to me too! That just made it all worse when the corn started telling me strange things...lol. Now I dont know why you say he cant take any anti-anxiety medications because of the bipolar. I am on them and am bipolar. What anxiety medications has he tried? Maybe he just hasnt tried one that will work. I know I cant touch a SSRI and wouldnt advise that at all. If all he has tried is something like buspar, then no, I wouldnt try that. Im thinking more along the lines of the xanax er that I take. Its extended release xanax and you take it once a day and it stays in your body all day and helps keep you calm. If he took it in the morning, he would have the relief for 24 hours. Otherwise they do have klonopin and ativan. Even vistaril can help some people though it never did a thing for me. I am not one who likes big places or crowds. I make myself go to places I have to go. There are certain places I have no choice. I have to go out to the stores because no one else is going to do it. If I could stay inside I would. Number one for me, it hurts. Number two, I hate it. But what am I gonna do? Gotta do it. [/QUOTE]
