    I am in a very bad wave and need help because I feel too much tired of this long lasting battle. I had an appointment with my doctor(Homeopath) last week.He is a kind man but he does not recognize at all the W/D and my symptoms.I cannot walk easily because of the lack of balance and muscle weakness and he told me that I am too thin and I have to eat more.
    He prescribed Saint Jonh Wort but I think this "med" has not a good effect because I feel again very depressive.I don't know what to do,I am desperate and sooo tired.

    Cosette, just like you I visited several homeopathic/orthomolecular doctors and though I embrace their philosophy, it became apparent that they too are mostly clueless about prolonged WD, even though most of them are against the use of psychotropic meds.
    Looking backward the supplements they gave me were pretty much useless. The only thing I got benefit from was massage therapy together with healing sessions. I would not visit a homeopathoc doctor unless fully recovered from WD.
    Recovering from the ravages of withdrawal after 5 years on Paxil/Seroxat, originally prescribed for stress and, looking backward, PTSS.
    Though it is hardly possible to get something positive from the utter hell of repeated c/t's and protracted w/d, all of this unnecessary, I still believe in the possiblity to emerge from this as a healed, wiser human being.
