My doctor put me on a cocktail of antidepressants. I stopped taking them 2 years ago, but I still get temporary blindness, panic attacks that I never had before taking them, heart palpitations, and my family says I “freeze” like zoning out but I don’t remember any of it.

Since I’m lucky enough to have Crohn’s disease pretty severely I get a few side effects that are horrible, I once got infliximab and it made me go into anaphylactic shock and ended up on oxygen and unable to breathe til I got really strong doses of hydrocortisone then when it didn’t work I got adrenaline, I was so out of it I don’t really remember much about that though
