Mike, I'm quoting one of your earlier posts and part of your most recent post because I'm not sure we have your signature correct. Did you go on Pristiqu in 2019, not 2020? 

 

Also, what combinations were you on (in your recent post you mention"combinations")? Were you also taking a benzodiazepine such as lorazepam or rivitrol? It's important we have this information correct, as it affects the information we give you for tapering. 

 

It looks like we need to change your signature from 2020 to 2019. Please let me know. 

I was on same combinations in 2019,Yes I still taking benzo and my doctor told me to stop

the 1/4 lorazepam tomorrow 

Pristiq:  2019 April 1st 50mg at morning till now. 

Rivotril:  2019 April 1st 0.25 mg till now at night ; 2020 April 28th added 0.0625mg twice a day 

Zoloft:  2019 April 28th 25mg; increased the dose to 50mg at 2020 May 5th till now (night) 

Lorazepam:  2019 April 28th dose 1.25mg ; decrease to 0.625mg at 2020 May 20th till now (night) 


Currently taking: 50 mg Pristiq (morning), 50 mg Zoloft (night), 0.0625 mg Rivitrol twice a day, and 0.625 mg lorazepam (night)

Reduced 50mg zoloft to 25mg at 2020 May 31st

Reduced 0.625mg lorazepam at June 3 rd

Is the date correct that I highlighted in purple? Did you just increase the rivotril April 2020?

I think I have schizophrenia and the doctor misdiagnosed....but those meds really can help me before.(can't think gradually) this symptom have you hear that before?

 

Have you ever used recreational drugs or alcohol? When did the meds stop helping? 

 

Also, did you go on the antidepressant first and then start taking rivotril and lorazepam?

Sorry, Mike, but I have no idea what you're trying to say.

 

Did you get diagnosed with rabies? Did you have a stroke? A stroke is something that will show up on head CT or MRI. 

 

Please write what you're trying to tell us in a translator in your native language and then post it here in English. That may help. Here is a translator:

What I want to express is that I have never taken recreational drugs. I stopped taking 1/4 pristiq on March 18. One thing I forgot to say, I had Hypochondriasis after my grandmother pass away in the past, and I felt a something in my throat, so I Googled I thought I had rabies, because I was caught by a classmate's dog eight years ago, and then I saw extreme examples, and I thought I was dying. I had to drink water for a few nights to prove that I didn't. Then one morning I was doing my homework, my right hand was suddenly paralyzed, and then the corner of my mouth was turned to the left, and then I could n’t speak for about half a minute. My family did n’t show me a doctor. It took me a while to scan my brain. I did n’t find any problems. I suspected that I had schizophrenia. I finally went to a psychiatrist. He diagnosed me with depression and anxiety, and I started my treatment. Even if I suspected that I had a mental disorder, I finally recovered, and I did n’t feel like I could n’t think, and I went to study and go to the gym. When I stopped the medicine, it came again, and I dreamed of a very real world after stopping the medicine. Doomsday dreams, after which I started to suffer from insomnia and no appetite. I did n’t want to do anything. This is my story.    I started taking 50mg pristiq and half of rivotril from April 1. The doctor told me to take 75mg pristiq as soon as I prescribed it. After two weeks of eating, I felt nauseous and became more and more weird, I reduced it to 50mg. Then I added zoloft and lorazepam. But more and more don't like myself today is June 1st,I am not sure that my condition is that possible related to the sadation or I really have schizophrenia. I really want to feel myself and enjoy my life. But doctor and everyone say that I am thinking too much. But it is really weird. I am 18 years old. Although my family no one have it. But I still have 1% chance to get it. I don't know who can listen to me before I getting crazy. So I come here.

Mike, what exactly are you taking now, at what dosages and what times of day (o'clock)?

 

Please take care to be accurate. You are answering our questions in a very confusing way.

 

If you are now taking 25mg Zoloft, do you feel different from when you were taking 50mg Zoloft?

What do you mean by nervous and nauseous? Did you just take any of your drugs?

 

I want to see your daily drug schedule, Mike. I'm looking for times of day, such as 2:00 p.m.

 

I find it very difficult to understand what you're saying. I'd appreciate your answering the questions I've asked.

 

It may take 4 days or more for that decrease in Zoloft to take effect. This probably is not a good time to stop lorazepam, as you may get withdrawal symptoms from that.

 

We advise changing only one drug at a time. Please let us know how you're doing.

 

You are taking an unnecessary selection of drugs. It is to be expected you feel odd. Please keep as calm as possible while you reduce your drugs.

Maybe you feel nauseous because you just took 2 drugs. Why do you take 50mg Pristiq and Rivotril (what dosage?) together?

 

I want to see your daily drug schedule for ALL YOUR DRUGS, in one list. If you do not supply this, I will not answer your questions.

Um, the time not the same everday. For example, yesterday I need to wake up early to go for exam. So, Pristiq and Rivotril maybe eat early because of it. And why I need take them together, I need to ask my doctor 😂I don't know too. Those meds I eat the time is not regular every day, So I can't answer you accurately. I listen to your suggestion, reduce it to 25mg.I feel little bit better. 

Rivotril at night the dose is 0.25mg

We don't go by psychiatric "disorders" on this forum. These are all "diseases" made up by psychiatry and there is no science behind their claims. 

 

If you believe you have such a "disorder," please work with your doctor. We're a forum for coming off psychiatric drugs, not discussing these "disorders."

This is a good, Mike. You may have some upticks in symptoms (you mentioned feeling tired and nauseous in an earlier post), but if you're feeling better overall, that's a good sign.

We don't go by psychiatric "disorders" on this forum. These are all "diseases" made up by psychiatry and there is no science behind their claims. 

 

If you believe you have such a "disorder," please work with your doctor. We're a forum for coming off psychiatric drugs, not discussing these "disorders."

We advise against making another drug change so soon after decreasing Zoloft. We have to see how you react to the decrease in Zoloft.

 

Please do not reduce lorazepam. TAKE EACH OF YOUR DRUGS AT THE SAME TIMES EVERY DAY. We need to see how you're doing over a week.

 

Please update your signature with the date you reduced Zoloft to 25mg.

As I know, Benzo can slow down one's brain. If I took rivotril and lorazepam. It can  strengthen the sadation. That's what I feel like?

You feel nauseous after taking Pristiq 50mg and Rivotril 0.0625mg in the morning, is that correct? Do you feel nauseous at other times?

I am sorry your are going through this Mike. what you are going through is not unusual, alot of members here on this website are experiencing these symptoms as a result of taking/stopping psyc drugs myself included. Feeling you are not yourself, can't think and emotions numbness are very common please do not be scared. The good news is they go away. people who have recovered said this. Please have a look on the sucess stories section for more reassurance
