...the drug. Nothing else I've ever been put on was that bad, but the "absent seizures" part is interesting. It's never a good idea to go off any SSRI or SNRI medication cold turkey. I did that with Olanzapine (the last of many, many) a few years back, and I'm still paying for it today...

...Anything that involves heart pretty much like chest pain/discomfort, palps, bleeding, skin discolouration etc. Lol I recently found out SSRIs can mess with the C. It can drastically change a females' menstrual cycle that it scared the carp out of me! I got pale, super ill and anaemic. I had...

...This psychiatrist told me that it would be impossible to have PTSD if I were never in combat. I was drunk for twenty five years, on SSRI's, benzos, and even off-label psychotropic for another ten years, and finally put on Clonazepam and sent on my way. After I realized I was addicted to...

...my second day of Luvox (25 mg). So far I am not feeling anything (at least it hasn't made me sick, I guess.) From what I understand, it's an SSRI primarily for obsessive compulsive disorder -- I think. I've tried several SSRIs in the past, and they all failed in different ways. Is there any...

...step back a little. Im seeing a therapist but its not for PTSD i just started so ill have to bring it up maybe. If its normal than maybe i shouldnt take an SSRI just yet...ive taken it 6 days and i know if i take it longer ill probably have withdrawal and those arent good esp with how im feeling.

...might find yourself working your way across a foreign country while in the throws of the discontinuation syndrome of a mood drug. Zoloft is an SSRI. That class of drug can have a nasty discontinuation syndrome, especially when it's done cold turkey. I've done it twice now. First was Paxil...

...with other drugs for depression? The dose is smaller but I wouldn't want to go much higher on that one due to side effects. I would rather take an SSRI for the Ptsd and depression since it's much less for side effects. I know MAOI's don't mix well. Just curious what was mixed meds for you all:)?

...Clenching at night 100 to 150psi. Anyone got head injuries too? Trygeminal nerve in face gets upset and this can happen. Study i read. Also.. SSRI can f*ck shit up by inhibiting the relax signals to the jaw muscles. I split my mouth gaurds and my teeth hurt alot everyday. My dentist dont...

I was on Doxepin, Efexor, Mirtazapin and some other. They all made things worse. I switched my P doc and he put me on SSRI (Citalopram first then Escitalopram). It helps a lot. I tried to taper off a few times when I felt I'm doing good though but it didn't work out so well.

...the medical model, which depends strongly on the gp you get to see, and their opinion of you. It might be good, but most likely consists of ssri anti depressants, that are indistinguishable from a placebo, but have a bunch of nasty effects and are shits to get off You might also get some...

...action processes. You may find that pharmacological medication may be required. These range from Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor's (SSRI's), for those that have depression in conjunction with anxiety, or TriCyclic Antidepressants (TCAs) which have worked superior across the range of...

...a requirement due to lifestyle choices / demands. Latest research brings much doubt upon the efficacy of Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor (SSRI's) and whether they are any longer suitable as an effective treatment with PTSD specifically. ASD has very similar symptoms of PTSD, however...

...another antidepressant, or see if the Amtriptiline makes a difference in your mood. I've been put on Prozac and Remeron at the same time (both SSRI class, though Remeron also affects norephine if I remember right) and ended up with Seretonin sydrome. However, I've been on Lexapro & Remeron...

...birth of my baby for one week straight and hallucinated maggots coming out of the trash can and the ceiling switching with the floor. I took an ssri for 5 mos which made it all worse even though it was sedating. I then had severe withdrawal. A very good psychiatrist rescued me after 1 year of...

...sleep deprivation due to post partum insomnia. I did not respond well to any of the drugs given to me. The drugs were sedating (drugs like SSRI's, ambien, and benzos) but also very activating at the same time. I experienced horrendous side effects and sever withdrawal especially after only...

I totally agree - my experience of every SSRI I've tried has not been good at all. I've had some potentially promising results with NDRI's, once I was able to persuade my GP to prescribe, though not so much with SNRI's or benzodiazepines. I was foolishly honest with my psychiatrist concerning...

@brat17 It's been over a month. I take 3 different meds, SSRI, antiphychoic and Valium. I think about suicide all the time. Not like actually committing it, just about it. Suicidal Ideation I think it is called. My family is my world and I can't believe i just admitted I'm ready to give up...

An SSRI or other medication could be helpful....meditation of some sort appears to be a great way to calm the mind. I need to research a little more about what type but some PTSD sufferers incorporate this into their lives...I'm looking to do the same. Hope you find some relief.

...on citalopram and that was about a week after starting out. It was one of the worst things I’ve ever experienced, This can happen with any SSRI. I decided to stick with the drug because it was one of the few that even works for me, it also worked immediately for me I didn’t have to wait two...

...10mg during that time and no real need for Clonopin. Just when I was a lil anxious. Anyways, a month ago I got off of prozac to try Viybrid (ssri). I was doing well for 4 weeks but then I had missed a dose and had a massive dizzy spell at work. I freaked out, felt like passing out and...

I've done genetic testing to figure out why I was failing every SSRI it was like I wasn't taking anything. Come to find out I'm an ultra rapid metabolized for one of cytochrome as mentioned above. So I would never get to a stable concentration. It was helpful to know why.

YES!!!!! ssri's are VERY dangerous and docs don't tell you. Mine screamed at me, "THERE!!! ARE!!! NO!!!!!!!!!! SIDE EFFECTS!!!" I had never been suicidal before. She asked when prescribing, which I thought odd. The pills did nothing for me. But, it seemed something invisible was trying to...

Yes! I have been on Viibryd since 2015 and have had pretty decent results with it. I am a poor/non-existent metabolizer of pretty much all SSRI and SNRIs, so the fact that Viibryd is a "little different" than those has been beneficial to me. NO drug has ever been a miracle drug for me and I have...

Hi, I wonder if someone have gotten increased anxiety after several days on a SSRI? It seems like I'm okay during 4-5 days, then the anxiety, dissociation and fear starts to increase daily. I started on a very low dose 12.5 mg (I'm on 7,5 mg of Mirtazapine as well) and had increased anxiety and...

SSRI's for me, totally blew my cognition. When were you put on the SSRI's and have you spoken to the doctor and told him/her that you aren't thinking properly anymore?
