I'm going nuts! My last pill was Thursday and tonight I have the brain and body shocks so bad! I read somewhere that the shocks can last up to 8 weeks! I have delt wit this with lamictal and Risperdal and the worst other then this one is Lortab! What was awful! I get hooked to that everytime I take it! Anyway...I'm freaking out. Light bothers me and even being touched bothers me some. It is almost like a migrain I guess...just without the major headache. HOT showers seems to help...at least while I'm in there and for a little while after. I guess its the water pooring on me and relaxation. I don't know.
If you have had this happen what did you do to help it?
I think I will call my Pdoc tomorrow to ask about it. I dont' know if I can handle it for 8 more weeks...or even 8 more days!

I'm sorry you are having withdrawls.
God could not be everywhere, so
This is April...got a new name.
Anyway...i was tappering off! I was only taking 5 mg a day. it doesn't even come that low. I took that for about 2 weeks. I have read that effexor is the worst with lexapro coming up at close 2nd. I guess i can handle 2 weeks of this. My Pdoc said if it doesnt' stop to make an appt. I see him in 2 weeks anyway. Maybe I can move it up a week. I don't know. I was an evil woman today! I ripped off my poor ds head a few times today. I'm hoping it is just because of the pain i'm in and to withdrawal and not a sig that i have to be medicated. we will see.
thanks for your reply!
