  1. You really need to call your doctor and tell someone close to you how you are feeling.  You should be monitored for your own safety.  I have had several bad experiences on different anti-anxiety medications, all of which I felt similar at one point to what you describe.  It turns out that SSRI (anti-anxiety) meds can trigger a manic, hypo-manic, or mixed state episode in someone that is bipolar.  It took ten years of being misdiagnosed before figuring out the real issue.  


  2. Call your Dr that prescribed the med's and let his Nurse know what is going on with you.  If you just started the med's then it will take awhile for you to start feeling "normal" again.  I have taken different anti-depressants and anxiety med's and they all different side effects.  

    Call your Dr. before you do anything else.
