Hello, I am new here and need help. I am on effexor 225mg and trazodone for sleep when I need it. The past couple of days I am experiencing what I think are anxiety attacks.

Welcome to the anxiety board at DS.
you description fits my own anxiety attacks. in its natural form, anxiety often warns me of real and present danger --such as dehydration, insufficient exercise, etc. when i start jittering, i start with a physical inventory. have i eaten well? am i drinking enough water? etc., etc. when the cause is physical, my mindset typically resets after i address the physical need.
then we get to the psychotic anxiety. . . for those anxiety attacks i look for safe places to vent and sort. this very forum is one of the places i come to do that. i hope it serves you as well as it has served me.
welcome aboard.
