Some days I’m fine.. others I feel like I’m walking on a trampoline or a boat .. or the room feels like it’s moving or dropping. So frustrating. I am on lexapro for 2 months now. Not much have changed. I have no answers. MRI was normal. Also have tinnitus.
Omg I get the eye thing as well! It’s so annoying. This all started in October , - before that I was totally fine. Now to get me in a store alone is a battle. It’s hard to cope. I have a 13 year old son and a 7 year old son. I force myself but I’m mostly in bed a lot . And my husband doesn’t understand and is always yelling at me and it makes it worse
Sadly that is part of anxiety, when I get the balance problems or feel the room is spinning or like you describe being on a boat(mine is like being on a boat in a storm) I found that laying down but with one foot on the floor the rocking and spinning stops ,the pain in my chest and the floaty things like transparrent worms in my eyes will stay for hours like when I get migraine
I had terrible withdrawal when I came off sertraline. It was so bad I ended up in the hospital. They put me on clonazepam and a new ssri. It took a little bit but I slowly started feeling better. I am now back at work. I couldn’t have survived without the other medication though. I think that my brain was completely lost without the serotonin. It just sucks that it takes so long for a new one to kick in. Hang in there and don’t be afraid to ask for help.
It started with nausea and diarrhea and lightheadedness and then it moved to racing heartbeat and extreme anxiety. Like I was having a panic attack all of the time
Hello mate , I am ten days cold turkey from Mirtazapine 45 mg. you are not alone my friend . Battle through , you are a as strong as a horse , and you’ll get through it. I got brain zaps right now, and it’s almost like having a star wars shooting scene in my head with the laser guns . As much as I hate it, I have trained myself to laugh each time it happens . What don’t kill us, makes us stronger . I suggest going on a heavy dose of turmeric extract , and 3 litres of water a day, and flush the citalopram out. You can do this mate , trust me, I am going through it with you bud
You do not have spinal leak , it’s the anxiety . I have health anxiety myself , I was convinced my heart wasn’t working properly , I had irregular heart rhythms for hours every day, my liver hurt, my chest had constant pressure . It’s anxiety . As hard to believe that the brain can do this, but it can . Can I suggest , there is a tea I get shipped from Germany called matcha tea , it’s not like your bullshit camomile tea and lavender tea. This stuff is potent . I use a site called matchatoday.co.uk , and I get the Indonesian MD strain. Put it this way, it’s so effective , that people have cured addiction with it . It’s a strong pain killer and cures anxiety and depression . Like I said, it’s very very potent , and you start with a quarter tea spoon , mix it into tea or coffee , and work the dose up slowly until you hit the sweet spot . That website is the only one I have found that has fresh legit matcha. If unsure , drop customer service an email , talk to them about your mental health , and they will point you in the right direction. Put it this way, I have 500 grams in my cupboard , and I swear by it. Hope this helps . Just remember , you are not dying , your spine is fine. It’s anxiety , and withdraws xx
The amount of google symptoms I have checked out omg
Never Google things when you are Ill , my Sister used to do that and by the time She got to her Drs She had every symptom that was on Google! It's better to talk to your Doctor or Pharmacist as they can help with your genuine symptoms rather than with Googled symptoms !! I hope you get better soon
I live with three Parrots, I enjoy talking to them when they allow me to get a word in! I rarely speak to people in person, I do occasionally talk to Family on Skype or WhatsApp, but mostly keep to myself, my ex who does my cleaning and Laundry, I will sit with for a while when she has finished and have a chat.otherwise I don't see or speak to anyone apart from Family or Dr ,my Dentist or when I end up in hospital because of medical conditions. So peaceful even with 3 Parrots, as they are not as noisy or argumentative as one Wife😂😂😂
My Parrot friends think they own Me! If I don't rub their necks or the top of their heads, they scream the Place down! Police turned up just after I moved here,as someone reported that a Child was screaming in terror! My cousin is a Police Detective Inspector so when the Police arrived two of them were telling them to go fornicate in not so polite terms. As far as Citalopram is Concerned ,If it is affecting you as bad as it sounds ask your Dr if it is safe to go back on them if it is then I would.
Lol u make me laugh
I used to be like you
But since this
I feel so scared and just can’t seem to shake this fear
Do what you feel you are comfortable with . Personally , I’d ride it out, and I use matcha tea for the withdraws . Not gonna lie, it does make me euphoric .
Have you stopped too abruptly. Go back on to 5mgs and see if you improve. If not go back up to 10. Then speak to your pharmacist about coming of gradually. However if you still need them, what’s the problem with taking them. Try and remember, you’ve survived like this before you can do it again. X
