I very recently started having something like anxiety attacks, I was doing things that were totally out of character for me (mood swings, anger, saying mean things for no reason, ending valuable friendships, getting badly depressed for no reason, withdrawing from my usual activities, not keeping up with things as I normally do, isolating from people, finding that I was beginning to hate the entire human race though I have always loved people and my entire career was devoted to working with people, being forgetful though I usually am not, etc.) and I became very concerned that something had happened. I kept thinking, “This is not like me. I am not myself. Its totally out of character for me to neglect things like this or to do some of the things I am doing. Something has gone wrong.” I started wondering if I was becoming senile though I’ve never seen that happen with any family member, sometimes wondered if maybe I was developing a brain tumor. I had pulled my health plan brochure and looked at mental health benefits available to me. Vytorin apparently caused much of the mental and emotional issues that I was experiencing so stopped taking it. I stopped taking it just a couple of days ago but am already finding all of the mental and emotional problems I was experiencing have gone away.
