>hey just wonderin if anyone whos been tapering as I have has had kinda "delayed w/d symptoms?" I mean i had the usual w/d symptoms(during the first few weeks after I would cut), these of course were managable with acupuncture, self care, etc. Then I would stabilize and then cut again..
This time however when I cut down to the 2mg I first got the usual w/d after about 5 days , then it was kinda back and forth for about a month. then i stabilized . but now here I am just about 4months into the 2mg dose and I have had some mood swings kinda.. I got some anxiety stuff, then went to acupuncture and it helped. Then I settled down for a few days and then the other day I just felt like crying. and again today and then I would feel so overwhelmed... I cant figure this out except that its just the body trying to even out still
Im wondering if anyone else got this.. jules or johnny??
From my last experience quite a while back I was on amytriptylene for about 3months then weaned and then about 3months later I totally went down?? thats when they stuck me on this crazy remeron.. Im wondeirng if i had just toughed it out and not had let the anxiety gotten tome.
Also back then I didnt know half of what i do now with healthe and well being. I was doing a bit of acupuncture but it was for a diff reason then so I dont think that would have made a difference.
Any thoughts?? Im thinking its just delayed w/d , body balancing out stuff.Im just letting these feelings pass and well, they do(Thank God!)

Marian29, so sorry to hear you're having a hard time. have you tried a different kind of exercise, like yoga or pilates, less high impact, not as easy to punish yourself if you cant do it for too long? or even walking.

> i had a lot of weakness and low mood after discontinuing too, and it was so hard not to feel bad about myself. also with the loss of appetite don't forget to eat good food to nourish yourself, even if you dont have the craving for it...this might help lift the depression a bit too.
