Mathias10 Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 (edited) Google translation: Good morning all It's a cry for help that I'm launching I'm 21, student and i'm living in hell In September 2019 I took abilify and brintellix 10mg for anxiety (I was not depressed) I reacted very badly to strong akathisia so I stopped abilify after 4 days and everything went back to normal order I continued the brintellix for 4 months without any worries In January 2020 I decided to stop the brintellix I did brutally without weaning In May 2020 the anxiety returned so I took the brintellix 10mg again but this time I reacted very badly: akathisia more discreet so after 3 weeks I went to seroplex the akathisia persisted so 4 days after sertraline same thing so 2 days after mianserine for 5 days the akathisia seemed to be less but it scared me so I also stopped During this period I was also taking anti-anxiety drugs for 6 weeks which I also suddenly stopped Akathisia persisted and even worsened and other symptoms were added: depression suicidal ideation anxiety myoclonus pressure behind the eyes bruxism strained jaw .. I tried propanolol pregabalin without any success So I took mianserin gradually two weeks ago up to 30 mg Here I would like some help or be reassured because I don't really know if all his symptoms are due to weaning from Ad or benzo I think it's irreversible, I seriously consider Death to this day.

Mathias10 Posted September 21, 2020 Author Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) Je ne me rappel plus des doses. J'ai arrêté les anxiolityques apres avoir stoppé le brintellix. La premiere fois j'ai pris Brintellix pendant 4 mois et tout c'est bien passé je l'ai arrêté brutalement 4 mois plus tard j'ai fais une rechute je l'ai repris et ça a été la catastrophe. La deuxieme fois je l'ai pris 3 semaines Google translation: I can't remember the doses. I stopped the anxiolityques after stopping the brintellix. The first time I took Brintellix for 4 months and everything went well I stopped it suddenly 4 months later I had a relapse I took it again and it was a disaster. The second time I took it 3 weeks Edited September 21, 2020 by ChessieCat added Google translation Link to comment
