harmony22013: horror story feeling of fear

[harmony22013]

When i try to taper off, at about the three month mark the terrible feelings of irrational fear return. i have never made it past this point.  Has anyone else experienced this?

My diagnosis is bi polar 1, with psychotic features in the distant past. 

Also, i am on lamictal and 5  mg of lexapro

Hi Harmony, welcome to SA.

It would be helpful if you could create a signature with your med history, including all drugs, doses and dates (starting and stopping).  You can edit your signature under your Account Settings.  See this topic for more info: Please put your withdrawal history in your signature

 

Many people find tapering off difficult, which is why this site exists.  We recommend very slow tapering here - see our topic: why taper by 10% of my dosage?
