Lexkills Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) Hi guys I tapered Cipralex 10mg to 0.00625mg over 2 years, Everything goes nice until I smoke weed which I thought is a medicine to heal, From that day onwards I got Akathisia then healed after 10 months and I got depression, Awful Mornings, Insomnia, Racing Thoughts, Fear of abandoned, Visual Snow, feels like always high. I got Patterns like Awful Mornings and Depressive Evenings. Note. I takes Propranolol 5mg for Akathisia and I still continue the med, If I Stop the med my feel like always high become worse and Heart palpitate, But Most of Symptoms heals day by day Thank God for Healing me. But I can't tolerate somes supplement like fish oil which could tolerate in Cipralex taper. I can't even tolerate Pepper in food. I introduce myself what are the things I do and I don't in me.

Administrator Altostrata Posted August 20, 2023 Administrator Share Posted August 20, 2023 How often do you take propranolol? For many people, psychiatric drugs cause emotional blunting or narrowing of emotional range while they take them. This is a well-known adverse effect of antidepressants and other psychiatric drugs. Quite often, emotional anesthesia persists or emerges while tapering or after you go off your drugs. We have seen this very gradually fades.

Many things can have unpredictable effects on a nervous system destabilized by withdrawal from psych drugs. If it causes you to be restless, I would avoid it. Increased sensitivity to light, noise, sound, exercise etc This link has a lot of information about many things related to withdrawal: Important topics about symptoms, including sleep problems Edited December 23, 2023 by getofflex Please do not private message me. Only tag me for urgent questions about tapering and reinstating - thank you. ***Please note this is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a doctor who understands psych meds and how to withdraw from them, if you can find one.

Can I treat with any Supplements. Most vision issues should improve with time, there isn't really a magic supplement to aid them. Vitamin A is used by the body to support healthy eyes, one source of this is cod liver oil.
