Moderator Emeritus mammaP Posted September 24, 2014 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted September 24, 2014 Hi Littlemess, Welcome to SA. I am sorry you didn't get any replies to this topic. I moved it here to introductions and updates where it will get more views and input. Thank you for doing a signature, it is very helpful but we need a bit more information if you don't mind. When did you start prozac, when did you reduce in dose/ updose etc. It is terrible that you are suffering so badly but hopefully we may be able to help you find a way to feel better. One thing that is certain is that switching doses only leads to more symptoms as the nervous system is not stable. **I am not a medical professional, if in doubt please consult a doctor with withdrawal knowledge. Different drugs occasionally (mostly benzos) 1976 - 1981 (no problem) 1993 - 2002 in and out of hospital. every type of drug + ECT. Staring with seroxat 2002 effexor. Tapered March 2012 to March 2013, ending with 5 beads. Withdrawal April 2013 . Reinstated 5 beads reduced to 4 beads May 2013 Restarted taper Nov 2013 OFF EFFEXOR Feb 2015 Tapered atenolol and omeprazole Dec 2013 - May 2014 Tapering tramadol, Feb 2015 100mg , March 2015 50mg July 2017 30mg. May 15 2018 25mg Taking fish oil, magnesium, B12, folic acid, bilberry eyebright for eye pressure. My story http://survivingantidepressants.org/index.php?/topic/4199-hello-mammap-checking-in/page-33 Lesson learned, slow down taper at lower doses. Taper no more than 10% of CURRENT dose if possible Link to comment
Administrator Altostrata Posted September 26, 2014 Administrator Share Posted September 26, 2014 Welcome, littlemess. How long have you been taking Prozac this time around? This is not medical advice. Discuss any decisions about your medical care with a knowledgeable medical practitioner.
