Don't u take any supplements ? I suggest watching success stories videos on YouTube when u feel u are losing hope.. there are many people who have made it and they live their best life. 7 years is such a rare case I think, I saw many many people here who were on this poisons for 10 years and recovered after 1 or 2 years There is light at the end of the tunnel ❤ Why can’t I find these utube success withdrawl videos except the lovely Grind utube stories, or some very fast recovery stories (like couple of months)?

andy96gr Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Hello! How are you doing now @BigPharmaStinks? •01/2017-12/2022 ~6 Years on Generic Escilitopram (5mg-20mg) because of repetitive panic attacks and anxiety that lead to depression. My tapering was not tapering as I read here. I consider it CT because of wrong directions of docs, I went from 20mg to 5mg in a short amount of time and then jumped to 0mg. •01/07/23 Took maca root powder for pssd for 4 days only which I think worsened my symptoms a lot.(Not sure if that was the cause or what came was supposed to come) •15/07/23-01/08/23 Prebagalin) 2x50mg 01/08/23 - 05/08/23. 75x50mg 06/08/23 - 18/08/23 2x75mg an then reduced 19/09/23 - 23-09 to 75x50mg 24/09/23 - 1/12/23 2x50mg. 1/12/22- ongoing 2x45mg( on first week of December happened a mistake in liquid I made and took 4 times double dose ) 15/01/24 - ongoing occasional 5mg diazepam for anxiety.

BigPharmaStinks Posted December 11, 2023 Author Share Posted December 11, 2023 I wish I had better news, but quite hellish the last 2 years. 3 rounds of covid most likely contributed to the worsening of cognitive and physical symptoms. How about you? Clomipramine: 50mg October-December 2016 Vyvanse: 20mg on most days from December 2016-February 2017, 10mg on most days from February-December 2017, 5-10mg as needed afterward. Stopped Vyvanse April 2018. Clonazepam: 0.25mg x3 February 2018-April 2018, 0.25mg x2 April-June 2018, 0.25mg x1 June-August 2018, tapered off 0.25mg over the course of 2 weeks. Escitalopram: 10mg December 2016, 15mg January 2017, 20mg February-December 2017, 30mg January 2018, 40mg February-April; began taper end of April, 15mg mid-June 2018, rushed from 15-0mg from mid-June to late June 2018. Reinstated to 1mg August 2018, then 2mg then 5mg then 10mg over the course of 5 weeks. Decreased from 10mg to 8mg for 2 weeks, then from 8mg to 0mg when Vortioxetine was added. Reinstated within a few days to 2mg (in early November) and then dropped to 1mg in early December. Vortioxetine: 5mg October-December 2018, tapered off over the course of 10 days after on it. December 7, December 2018 - June 22: Escitalopram 1mg. Current: No psychoactive meds ever again. Supplements: Mg2+ 600-800mg/day (most comes from HardyNutritionals DENs of which I take 12 capsules a day), 3000mg omega-3 oil, 1000mg vitamin C, tried 20+ other supplements before realizing that they are not effective for a destabilized central nervous system.

Last day I took 100 ml coke and from then on just quit. I also quit my chewing gum addiction at the same time. Some days I took 50 pieces of sugar free gum. Had to run to the bathroom every evening;) I've had some extreme fatigue especially the first 2 weeks. Fell asleep on the couch three nights in a row. I'm also doing OMAD since January and I'm doing relatively ok. I think I was addicted to diet coke and artificial sweeteners. They really made me feel happy. My brain fog and depression have worsened quite a bit since quiting diet soda. I miss it but I'm pretty confident I can make it through. I feel pretty excellent when I eat sugar or artificial sweeteners. Like my problems fade away. Next morning however I feel terrible and bloated. Well that's it for now. Just wanted to to give an update.

How about you? Wow. You have stuck it out for so long. Have you been bedridden for years? I wish we could get our stories out. There are so many kids on these meds Sertaline- tried 50 mg beginning of June 2023. Caused hyperreflexia. So stopped after one dose. Tried several smaller doses that month. Had burning and twitching so just stopped. Lexapro June of 2023' 2.5 mg for two weeks July of 2023 5 mg for two weeks July of 2023 7.5 mg for 2 weeks August to mid September 10 mg Mid September reduced to 7.5 October to October 15 reduced to 5 October 15 to October 30 reduced to 2.5 October 30-off Link to comment
