Answers:
What you are experiencing are the withdrawal symptoms of your missed dose, amongst which are also irritability, agitation, dizziness, a burning or tingling sensation, anxiety, confusion, headache, insomnia, tiredness, "brain zaps," etc!. Your psychiatrist should have prescribed you a prescription that would last until your next appointment, so I do not understand why you have run out, however, what you can do is call him and schedule an appointment ASAP so that he/she can prescribe you some more medication!. The symptoms may be uncomfortable but they are not threatening enough for you to be rushed into the ER, however, if you feel that you cannot partake in certain activities because of your withdrawal symptoms (such as driving, one I have noticed you have listed), do not do so!. Best of luck, and I hope this helped!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I take Wellbutrin SR (150 mg) in the morning, and Lexapro (10 mg) in the evening, for depression and anxiety!. I've been taking that for over a year and a half, and it's working very well for me!.

You can call your "regular" doctor and see if they have a few available (maybe free samples, for example) until you can get a prescription!. They can also call a prescription to the drug store so you can get them quickly!.

I've been there - usually missing it a day or two isn't too bad!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
