Getting mild mental symptoms is nice.the gut stuff is off and on.last night I had healthy pizza and got heartburn at 6am.thats delayed for me. I'm adding oregano oil in the mix🤯 for a gut cleansing. Micro dosing of course . Diet is pretty clean now around 70percent clean.   What's with the delayed reaction from your gut with the heartburn. That's so random. Talk about the mind and gut being out of whack since the ache or pains would occur quickly.  Like me man, besides the usual symptoms, a few weeks back I had lost my sex drive, and now Jesus H Christ, its in overdrive. I should be happy, though I know it's not normal and somewhat is freaking me out. Though, I have to constantly remind myself it's just my brain doing adjustments.  Like my ma has said, just go at it one day at a time.

Moderator Emeritus Dejavu Posted April 30, 2019 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted April 30, 2019 Rus, I'm so sorry about the GI problems. You were rocking along so good, too! 😕  I hope the oregano oil helps. If you have a leaf of fresh basil, chewing on it sometimes helps as well. Also lemon balm helps me with heartburn, although FYI, it has very slight MAOI properties, if that's an issue. I've never had an issue with it, but I've only used it sporadically (in supplement form), and everyone is different. 2016 - Zoloft 50 mg for klonopin w/d Approx.

I'm going to start looking out for that with my G.I. symptoms.  With the immune system, I agree. The last three months that I took my med, my body was going haywire to the extreme I had a shingles breakout due to my immune system interacting with my med. These meds truly screw you up.  When I began my W/D I constantly had the chills which I contribute to my immune system trying re-stabilized. It was late February when I had my last episode. Though, we know these symptoms due to tend to come back with every adjustment our brain does.  I just hope that one doesn't. Trintellix (Brintellix) 5mg - December 2015 to Mid July 2018 Vitamin C 500mgs daily January 2019 - March 30 2019 Boost my immune system through my withdrawal - Stopped Up and Up 3 Billion Probiotics - Daily for IBS. - Stopped Up and Up 30 Billion Probiotics - Daily for IBS. - Stopped  June 16-26 2018: C/T to take Antiviral medication for Shingles outbreak (Due to excessive stress - SSRI Poop Out). June 27 2018: Reinstated (5mg) July 14 2018 last dose due to acute withdrawal symptoms.  Link to comment

Molder Posted May 4, 2019 Share Posted May 4, 2019 Hi there, I am doing really good. I am completely cured from antidepressants and the withdrawals. God cured me. One night I was at the end of my rope crying and in complete torture I just dropped on my knees with my hands in the air reaching to the ceiling and yelled out to God to just give me one more chance and that I would do right in the world. A few days later I woke up and started crying because I could feel that the awful torture was gone. It has never came back. If your going through the torture of these horrible drugs turn to God and he will help. Turn to him for EVERYTHING!!! Started on ad's at 23. Do not remember what I started with or what dose. I am 34 now I know I did not not switch medications very often and only used an AD. Celexa 40 mg (2011-2013)Switched from celexa to Wellbutrin 09/13 for 1 month( quit cold turkey) 1 month later withdrawal kicked in Got on Prozac 10mg for 2 months 1/14-3/14 switched to Lexapro Lexapro 10 mg for 6 months 3/14-9/14 Switched back to Wellbutrin 9/14. Started on 150 mg while tapering off of Lexapro. Took 150 mg daily for two weeks while reducing the Lexapro. Dose increased to 300 mg after last pill of Lexapro. Took 300 mg Wellbutrin for two weeks before deciding to stop. Weaned off of it in 6 weeks. 300 mg for 2 weeks 150 mg for 2 weeks 75 mg for 2 weeks Not sure when withdrawal started or from which drug because I was ok on the Lexapro until depression returned and I switched to Wellbutrin which made it worse. I am now almost 4 months without an AD and it is very difficult to function. I have taken muscle relaxers and different benzos to deal with withdrawal problems. Link to comment

RusTW Posted June 11, 2019 Author Share Posted June 11, 2019 Update in the deepest trenches of withdrawal. Still on FODMAP diet all bad food and drink eliminated. Still doing parasite candida detox suffering major die-off with every round. Went to urologist for yearly hormonal blood test. Testosterone was low tried to reinstate a injection of testosterone that failed. Major anxiety and panic attacks. One more medication that I won't be able to take anymore. I'm happy I was able to try it and isolate one of the problems I was having last summer during withdrawals taking it.

Rosetta Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Hi Rus,  First nap was a toxic nap which means I awoke with a cortisol spike shortly after I fell asleep. That has stopped happening for the most part. Now my naps are sudden and impossible to avoid. It's very odd, but I'm grateful they happen. They last a while and some are quite deep.  I see you are feeling poorly. Hang in there. It really does get better. You will heal. It takes a while. Too long, but it happens. Just hold on.  Rosetta https://www.survivingantidepressants.org/topic/16629-rosetta-ct-may-2011-too-fast-taper-feb-2017/?page=25 2001-2011 Celexa 10 mg raised to 40 mg then 60 mg over this time period May 2011 OB Doctor's Cold switch Celexa 60 mg to 10 mg Zoloft sertraline (baby born) 2012-2016 - Doctors raised dose of Zoloft up to 150 mg 2016 - Xanax prescribed - as needed - 0.5 mg about every 3 days (bad reaction) 2016 - Stopped Xanax Late 2016- Began (too fast) taper of Zoloft Early 2017 - Trazodone prescribed for bedtime (doseage unknown) Feb 2017 - Completed taper/stopped Trazodone Drug free since Feb 2017 2017 - Unisom otc very rarely for sleep Link to comment

Body was soooooo toxic this was necessary to do.I wasnt absorbing nutrients properly. I'm gaining ground finally. I worked in Malibu at a sushi restaurant for a few years.I think this was the origin of infection. STAY CLEAR OF SUSHI. Hope ya keep seeing good days.

I've already dropped a bunch of bad weight staying on the FODMAP diet pretty good. I'm just figuring all these toxins that I've had for a while it affected my liver and probably even metabolizing medications. Speaking of I found out that Seroquel can spike your sugar levels in your body so that's probably adding to the candida situation. I also passed liver flukes which burrow into your liver and cause damage. Probably got from eating sushi.

RusTW Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 @manny03 hey man how's it going. Yes about the GI issues I do have to say though my body was definitely full of parasites. When this happened to you it's just like withdrawal. Your doctors will send you around 2 specialist chasing symptoms and never do a Candida test or a parasite test a comprehensive one. Going through this last month gave me way more strength just knowing that I have the health to beat and overcome withdrawal. Having had some intense feelings about death I've learned going through this to appreciate what I have now even though it's not like I want it I can make the best of it. For anybody out there struggling with health issues and going through withdraw I absolutely feel for you it is a scary place to be in and very dark but believe there's always hope and an answer March-2017-Dec-2017 ativanCT /reinstated ativan 1mg tapered 2 months/June 2017-April 2018 zyprexa 10mg switched to seroquel 200-300mg in april 2018/dec-2017-present zoloft 100mg/ quit seroquel 200-300mg cold turkey May 6 2018 reinstated seroquel 100mg around May 25 2018 since then tapered to 50mg zoloft and 50 mg of seroquel presently other medications Testosterone cypionate 2oomg every 4 days UPDATE -August 20 2018--october 20 2018 tapered off Testosterone/Nov 7 2018 --Dec 20 2018 Lamictal micro dose 2.50mg 1 1/2 weeks then reduced to 1.25 then fast tapered as it became paridoxial.nausea- racing thoughts- agitation and insomnia.

I'm still dealing with a Candida and parasite detox. It seems like I reached past the bad point of it so my body starting to recover a little bit. Sleep is pretty regular now at least for 5 hours which is enough for me. Good to hear from you hope your doing good.
