Freedom15 Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 Have struggled alot this last couple of reductions and seem to have got constant tremours/parkinson type movements which has not carmed down yet so i am thinking of holding for further week. I am due to reduce in 4 days. I am also vary tired and mentally and physically feeling it. Holding has not been my thing to be honest altho i think i need to just rest. I know i canot control the outcome at all altho giving my body time heal is needed now i think. Yesterday the headache was so bacj that i ened up being sick 3 times. This has not happened before so hopefully is one off. I will see how feel in 4 days when remake meds up i may just make bath one weeks worth at same dose just hold and see what happens.

Moderator Emeritus Carmie Posted August 22, 2019 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hi Freedom, Glad to see you’ve been able to taper again. Hope the waves settle a bit soon. You’re on such a minuscule dose now, it’s amazing how every drop still affects us so much and then doctors say to people that are on 25mg of something to just jump off because it’s such a small dose???? 25mg is a really, really high dose. I hope all all goes well when you finally jump off, sending hugs🤗 Seroquel. 2019:➡️ From 7.25mg to 5.80mg✔️ 2020➡️From 5.60 to 4.80✔️ 2021➡️From 4.60 to 4.0✔️ 2022➡️From 3.95 to 3.55✔️2023➡️ Jan 26=3.50✔️March 17=3.45✔️ June12=3.40✔️ July30=3.35✔️ Sep14=3.30✔️ Oct31=3.25✔️ 2024➡️Jan15=3.20✔️ Feb19=3.15✔️ March26=3.10✔️This is NOT medical advice.Consult your doctor.

Freedom15 Posted August 27, 2019 Author Share Posted August 27, 2019 Today i started off better but have deteriated as day has gone on. tremours is always key indicater that i am not at my best. Taking it as easy as i can at moment. Tomorrow i will try get out for while and do some photography if can but the weather is so hot at moment and medication messes with me being hot and sweating excessivly. 2 weeks of syringes left till another reduction so i will have see what i am like then. So hard even at such small amount. Feel hopeless sometimes of any long term recovery or even getting off medication in one piece. Possible feeling negitive from being in unsettled place so will try stick to a day at time. So today i am ok uncomfortable physical and mental stuff i would like to change just make it till tonight then another day done.

Freedom15 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 Have decided to reduce tonight. Reductions are mental reallly as i am setting the meds up to what it should be but in reality its possible not as accurate as the maths. As everything is so small now its hard.

Freedom15 Posted September 17, 2019 Author Share Posted September 17, 2019 Went to the CAB yesterday to start the process of going bankrupt. When i got ill my house was sold as i could no longer pay the mortgage. There was a massive negative equity amount left over which i have no chance to pay of in my life time.

Freedom15 Posted September 25, 2019 Author Share Posted September 25, 2019 Been under a lot of pressure at the momment which is just making me feel ill.. When i am stressed it just seems to put me into some kinda nerological overload. Trying to just stay calm and do the things that help. Have decided to pause on the bankruptcy until i can deal with it without it affecting my health. Financial consent order has been rejected by court with questions so have wait for the outcome on this. Home life can be hard at times due living in a blended family and the dynamics of it. Going to go for a walk and try do some photography which will help carm me down.

Freedom15 Posted October 1, 2019 Author Share Posted October 1, 2019 So much stress on my plate right now which has caused me to end up in a massive wave of not being good. I am trying my best to keep everything in the day but it is really hard. I have a reduction coming up in 7-10 days time so i will have to see what i am up to then. Right now i feel in quite dark hopeless place where i feel like i will never be well. I know this is temporary and that i will better at some point its just when you are in this space it so hard to see anything around you. My wife struggles as well because she says its like her husband has been taken away and a different person is here. Sometimes i find it so hard that 2 tablets can make so much damage to a person and there life it just go's to show how dangerous these medications.

Freedom15 Posted October 17, 2019 Author Share Posted October 17, 2019 Felt good for couple days. Was able to get out and fully engage in my photography which is a plus. The last reduction was 10mg tab to 10ml water with 0.01625ml taken then added to 2000ml water finally 0.02ml taken this should give 0.00000016mg Next reduction i am going to have to do it different due to the low dose. I will be adding more water to the first part and keeping the bits taken out same now. 10mg tab to 15ml water with 0.02ml taken out then added to 2000ml water finally 0.02ml taken of 2000ml I am not sure how work it out to get end dose but i know thats how i got to do the reduction unless anyone has any other ideas..? Any help in working it out would be good as well ??

Freedom15 Posted November 4, 2019 Author Share Posted November 4, 2019 I am more stable now.. It is reduction time tomorrow again. I am toying with either continuing on with the reduction rate that i have been which is around 25% or trying for one month a 50% reduction to see what the difference is and how my body copes with this. The reason why i have considered this is because i am getting close to having to do 100% and then totally off and wanted to do a test to see if i can come off or need to reduce further. Has anyone got any experiance in this matter ??

Freedom15 Posted November 7, 2019 Author Share Posted November 7, 2019 Ok so i decided in the end to drop by 30% which is just over the 25% that i have been doing for while with being at such a low dose now. Did the actual reduction sunday night so couple days into it. Ony physical stuff happening at the moment mental side is ok altho the kids are returning for next week which always seems overload me.

Its so hard it like theres just ann inner rage that wants to come out all time and i cant stop it. Its all part off when i am not feeling so good but its hard for my wife also as shes feeling down with it. Hope fully it will calm down soon and i will have to try to better manage myself when i realise i am in this sate. Its not always easy because i think i am behaving normal when i am not. Freedom, was it this kind of moodiness that caused you to go on drugs in the first place? You may benefit from anger management coaching. When you feel confident you can manage the expression of your emotions, you could come off that tiny dose of amitriptyline you're taking. You've done an admirable job of tapering.

Freedom15 Posted November 13, 2019 Author Share Posted November 13, 2019 Just update I am starting to feel alot better in my self. Still have physical symptoms and the odd mental but this reduction has been alot better than before. My wife says this has been the best reduction i have done so far and alot waves stuff has been not so prominant I feel like i maybe at a turning point in my reduction because i was vary aware that it is suggested to reduce to point where the reductions are no longer causing you problems when you reduce. I am currently reducing 30% so next time i will try a 50% reduction. I will then see how things are and report back. It has been a long hard road back altho i am not quite there maybe the hard work of reducing for past 5 years will pay off..

Freedom15 Posted November 16, 2019 Author Share Posted November 16, 2019 For 1.5 days i have had a wave.

Snorky Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Hi Freedom Can empathise entirely with you. Amitriptyline has also messed me up. You may have seen my issues with withdrawal and failure of reinstatement in my post in introduction forum. I’ve been off completely for five days and struggling with the Parkinson like tremors (split milk everywhere pouring into cereal bowl earlier) However also has your anger/agitation when on and during cold turkey. “Waves” of negativism thoughts, confusion, anguish and strain. I don’t know how you feel, but I’d willingly take the Parkinson’s shakes if I could get rid of the mental anguish thing. Thinking of you.
