lexapro withdrawal, trying again and losing it

Posted by jaynee on September 7, 2006, at 20:27:33

This is my 4th time trying to get off this stuff in the last 6 months. I have been taking it for about 1.5 years. I tried about a month ago, but the exhaustion made it impossible. So....., get this,.... I quit my job and I am determined to get off this stuff. I have been taking lots of magnesium and I have tapered down to 2.5mg. I haven't even completely quit, but I am already, crying when I watch movies, and driving like a complete nutbar, yelling out my window as I drive along at anyone who even drives the speed limit. I am thinking about locking myself at home for about 3 weeks.

I am getting off this stuff, because I have become a complete zombie, I can't concentrate or feel anything on this sh*t. I know I feel too much, but this drug seriously is making me a zombie, but at the same time, I have constant muscle tension. I can't enjoy a movie on this stuff, and I miss that. I still hate my life, etc on this drug, and I am not sure what it is doing for me, except making me fat and apathetic.

Please tell me, should I go and get some prozac to get off this stuff? I am leary about the prozac, causing me start up anxiety, don't need that again. Any suggestions, please......Thanks
