I'm been off Lexapro for about a week in preparation for starting Parnate tomorrow, and I'm having the most miserable withdrawal symptoms.
My withdrawal symptoms, from least disturbing to most disturbing...
- I've been sleeping even more then usual. I feel like a need a minimum of 12 hours now in order to do anything.
- Depression and anxiety are worse (guess this was to be expected...)
- constant headache
- constant state of dizziness
- weird brain jolts that feel like I'm being shocked every couple of minutes. They're not very painful, just extremely weird and uncomfortable.
- Depersonalization. Everything feels off, and seems unreal. It feels a little bit like being extremely sleep-deprived. It causes extreme difficulty doing anything (even writing this took an enormous effort).So yeah, is this gonna go away soon? Because I feel like I'm losing my mind.
