    Hi Sheila! The course of acupuncture was targeted at all my withdrawal symptoms, in particular the insomnia, sadly it provided no improvement. Going to do some research on acupuncture/ pressure points, how I might be able to alleviate the problem. Thank you for being so thoughtful! Hugs. Xxxxxx

    Me too!
    2006 Rx'd Cymbalta for approx 1 yr. WD after 4 mos - didn't realize was WD,took Zoloft and Klonopin; tapered K. Spring 2012 experienced major WD symptoms while tapering Zoloft; tried to updose but no relief, back on K 1 mg. Switched over 5-6 mos from Zoloft to Citalopram. Finished Zoloft 1/13; now on Citalopram 35 mg and 1 mg Klonopin. Started to experience withdrawal symptoms from switch (?) approx. 3 months after finished Zoloft (4/13). Now at 35 mg and hoping to start slow taper

    I also tried acupuncture for two months last year. It felt good while I was in the chair but provided no lasting results that I could see and it was expensive. I do think it helps some people with certain types of pain. Don't know about acupressure.
