Takebackmylife Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 Today I hit rock bottom. After a night of arguing with my husband and him moving to the basement and wanting a separation, I went to ER. I've been 21 days off Lithium 300mg with excessive weeping, leg pain and wrist pain. I left ER with a plan to go home and sleep and take medication tonight before bed. Still undecided about what to do. Could desperately use some support and guidance. 1996 Zoloft for depression 2003 Celexa 10 mg 2007 Effexor 10mg 2011 Cipralex 10 mg. August 2015 100mg Seroquel for insomnia. 2015 Cipralex went up to 20mg September 2017 Decreased Seroquel to 50mg overnight. September 2017 Prozac 20 mg for severe depression and suicidal ideations. April 2 2018 Lithium 300mg for suicidal ideations. April 2018 Stopped taking Seroquel 50 mg all together overnight. June 8 2018 stopped Lithium 300mg overnight Link to comment
Administrator Altostrata Posted June 27, 2018 Administrator Share Posted June 27, 2018 Takebackmylife, how are you doing now? What kind of medication? It sounds like you're going through a family crisis. This could have a big effect on your weeping, etc. During a family crisis is not a good time to reduce psychiatric drugs. This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.

Administrator Altostrata Posted June 28, 2018 Administrator Share Posted June 28, 2018 I'm sorry, this is only an Internet peer support forum. It sounds like you need a family counselor to speak to face-to-face. Please contact your local social welfare agency, church, or family therapy center. This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.
