I really liked what you wrote, Sheila - that was beautifully written. I really relate to how you think about this situation at times, Iggy. I too feel quite doomed a lot of the time and, well, just terrified. As Sheila said, it makes sense that this would be WD type of thinking but something also that we are bringing to the experience. I just want to feel normal, like myself, like everyone around me who is not dealing with this awful experience. But it is what it is and I think the more we can accept our situation, it will help. I am not sure how to get there but I am going to try. Maybe we can help each other as we go through this process together. I do think it is a good sign that the akathisia has lessened for you over the last couple of days - hang on to tothose positive changes. I liked your poem - you are a very creative person. I saw on another one of your posts the pictures of your sock monkeys and absolutely loved them.....they are so cute!! I am wishing the best for you, Iggy.
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

last night was a welcome break from hell, I went to bed late and read and felt ok, I even ate a very cheeky packet of crisps, does anyone else eat crisps?
slept quite well but had jolts of the ''disgusting'' feelinjg that I couldnt explain if my life depended on it, sort of like anxiety but more....disgusting, dirty, just hell, but even though it woke me a few times I was ok and managed to sleep well.
Woke up at 11am feeling generally weak, scared and had anxiety, but only anxiety, normal anxiety, nothing supercharged striaght from hell.
had a letter from benefits granting me one of the benfits I needed, so thats good, feel ok now, no akathisia or much of anything, just got back from the sjops and definitly felt less trippy and drugged up than the past few weeks, going out for tea after I have picked up Freddie, send me good vibes, things are much better than before.
