Downbutnotout: Started a bridge to get off effexor


Downbutnotout

Recommended Posts

Please, guys, no one is stupid.  It hurts to read this word being used by both Ali and yourself, DBNO.  I think many of us have done or tried things we wish we hadn't when we are desperate to feel better.  DBNO, I am not sure anyone has the answer to your question as to what to do regarding the Pristiq except what you said you already did which was to stop it since it made you feel unwell.  Did you go back onto the 6 beads of Effexor?

-1/06 - 3/07 Cymbalta. Fast taper (essentially CT); withdrawal symptoms after 4 mos (didn't realize was WD)

-10/07: 100 mg Zoloft; 1 mg Klonopin - tapered off Klonopin after 4 mos. Several unsuccessful slow tapers of Zoloft; went up and down in dose a lot

-Spring 2013 back on 1 mg Klonopin to counter WD symptoms; switched over 5-6 mos from Zoloft to 35 mg citalopram
-Two attempts at slow tapering citalopram, always increased dose due to WD; also increased Klonopin to 1.25 mg in 2014, then to 1.5 mg in 2015

-8/17-9/17: After holding one year at 20 mg, feeling withdrawal symptoms due to stress - slowly increased to 25 mg. No change in symptoms after 6 months (? tolerance ?)  - decided to start citalopram taper February 2018 (still on Klonopin 1.5 mg).

Supplements: fish oil; magnesium; vitamin D3; curcumin

Citalopram taper:  2/2018 - 12/2019: 25 mg - 11.03 mg I 2020: 10.89 mg - 7.9 mg I 2021: 7.8 mg - 5.26 mg I 2022: 5.2 mg - 3.36 mg I 2023: 3.3 mg - 1.47 mg 2024: 1/5/24: 1.44 mg; 1/19/24: 1.40 mg; 1/26/24: 1.37 mg; 2/2/24: 1.34 mg; 2/9/24: 1.31 mg; 2/23/24: 1.28 mg; 3/1/24: 1.25 mg; 3/8/24: 1.22 mg; 3/15/24: 1.19 mg; 3/29/24: 1.17 mg; 4/5/24: 1.14 mg; 4/13/24: 1.11 mg; 4/20/24: 1.09 mg; 4/27/24: 1.06 mg

Just like you said there is no side. You are not on the losing side. If the pristq makes you feel better maybe you should take it. But talk to Chessiecat. She is tapering off of it. I'm not a dr or mod, so it's just an opinion.

PREVIOUS medications and discontinuations: Have been on medications since 1996. 

 Valium, Gabapentin, Lamictal, Prilosec and Zantac from 2000 to 2015 with a fast taper by a psychiatrist.

 Liquid Lexapro Nov, 2016 to 31-March, 2019 Lexapro free!!! (total Lexapro taper was 4 years-started with pill form)

---CURRENT MEDICATIONS:Supplements:Milk Thistle, Metamucil, Magnesium Citrate, Vitamin D3, Levothyroxine 25mcg, Vitamin C, Krill oil.

Xanax 1mg 3x day June, 2000 to 19-September, 2020 Went from .150 grams (average weight of 1 Xanax) 3x day to .003 grams 3x day. April 1, 2021 went back on 1mg a day. Started tapering May 19, 2023. July 28, 2023-approximately .87mg. Dr. fast tapered me at the end and realized he messed up. Prescribe it again and I am doing "slower than a turtle" taper.

19-September, 2020 Xanax free!!! (total Xanax taper was 15-1/2 months-1-June, 2019-19-September, 2020)

The suggestions I make are based on personal experience.

I don’t think they’re going to have anything to do with me on this website. So good luck. At least you’re getting better.

I didn't think that either at one time. Talk with Chessiecat, she's going off pristq and might be able to help. I wouldn't say I'm getting better. You will be fine. Take a deep breath. But please don't argue with the mods, they are only trying to help. Especially Ali, she really is a gem. They are going through the same things we are and are doing this out of the kindness of their hearts and for free.

Do what? Talk to chessie cat?  I didn’t take anything today. I only took it for 5 days. 25 mg . If that’s what you’re talking about. I had a terrible reaction to it. It made me manic. Then it made me really depressed. My husband told me not to take it today. So I didn’t. Maybe I should. I don’t know what to do!! 

My husband and dtr s begged me to take it in the first place. My husband thinks the effexor is making me sick. Could I go back on the 6 beads if effexor? It wasn’t helping much. Now the p is suggesting abilify. I won’t take that. So you know what’s left?

I don't know or have any answers for you, I am sorry you are still struggling so much. Why did you start coming off the Effexor to begin with? Was it not working, just wanted to get off?

The doctor took me off of it because it had pooped out. She added prozac which I overreacted to.

Hi DBNO,

I am sorry you are sounding so lost and frustrated.  We all came here for help...I have gotten and read such good advice and exceptional knowledge not found anywhere in the medical community...just got worse there actually.  

Sounds like Pristiq made you ill and yet you question taking it.  Sounds like Effexor doesn't work yet you question stopping it.  Your husband and children ask you to do something with your meds.  The doctor suggests you take something else and you think not a good idea.  Do you think it might help to listen to less people and focus on those you trust the most r/t to knowledge and experience?  And trusting yourself and your body could perhaps help as well?

It is a long, challenging road and we are not alone.

Wish you the best and will be thinking about you.

Hi dbno

hope you are doing ok, well done on being stable for the past two days. That’s really good. I am not a mod so couldn’t give advice but I would have thought hold with what you are taking, don’t change anything and just wait for more stability. You will get there. I know it seems very hard, it is for us all, butvslowly, slowly we improve. 

2006 After sudden death of mother put on 20mg of citaloprom for depression. 

2014 Drug stopped working after two weeks of panic attacks felt fine. 

Aug 2014. Doctor put me on lyrica for rash on face, diarrhoea, sleeplessness,muscle cramp, bruising. Initial dose too strong, halved dose.  Stopped taking it 22/10/14

2014 severe anxiety after several ssri's attempted, seem to have developed severe  sensitivity to any drug, but giving severe  reactions put on cipralex drop form.started on 2 drops and had to increase by 1 drop every 3 days. Eventually got to 12 drops and had to stop as side effects every step of the way dreadful. Psychiatrist kept telling me to stick with it and my body would get used to it.  Eventually down to 8 drops. Bad reactions throughout the time I was on it

Have been on this until may 2017. Stopped over two weeks. Felt fine for 5 weeks after initial dizziness, nightmares, nausea, insomnia.  

Given diazepam by gp and told to take them when anxiety bad. Have only taken them very rarely as they frighten me. 

Last two weeks severe anxiety returned and feeling hopeless 

11July 2017. Cipralex 2mg. Anxiety, nausea still severe

13 July 2017 Cipralex 1mg due to advice of too high dosage  by kind person on thus site. so dropped from 2mg to 1mg and feelings of anxiety still at severe. As well as nausea, headaches, fatigue. 

15 July still feeling extremely anxious verging on panic. Nausea, feelings of fainting, fatigue. Lots of head pains 

3 August. Three weeks into trying to stabilise on one drop of cipralex. Still have waking from 4am. Sporadic upset stomach. Nausea.  High anxiety.  Throbbing/burning in nether regions seems to have eased for time being but stabbing/burning in calves of legs. Tinnitus. Occasional half to whole better days but mainly still struggling. Fatigue

DBNO. Please accept my apology. Long, sleepless nights working as a moderator obviously can take their toll. I have had my waves ~ and it has had an impact. I'm sorry that I upset you. It wasn't intentional. I do hope that you can get the additional help you need now from the other mods and members ~ nothing to do with Alto. She was unaware ~

Best wishes.

Ali

A lifetime of being prescribed antidepressants that caused problems (30 years in total). At age 35 flipped to "bipolar," but was not diagnosed for 5 years. Started my journey in Midwest United States. Crossed the Pacific for love and hope; currently living in Australia.   CT Seroquel 25 mg some time in 2013.   Tapered Reboxetine 4 mg Oct 2013 to Sept 2014 = GONE (3 years on Reboxetine).     Tapered Lithium 900 to 475 MG (alternating with the SNRI) Jan 2014 - Nov 2014, tapered Lithium 475 mg Jan 2015 -  Feb 2016 = GONE (10 years  on Lithium).  Many mistakes in dry cutting dosages were made.

This really is wonderful news D :)  And to finally be able to cry a little! I know how desperately you have wanted to cry for so long but couldn't...so let the tears flow when they come, it is a welcome release. Also it might be worth updating your signature. Much Love K xo
