I don't post very much but I need some serious help. I've been on Marplan since Sept and because it never really did anything positive my doctor decided to take me off it. So I went from 30 to 20 mgs last Monday and this has been the worst week of my life. I don't think Paxil was this bad. I feel like I'm going to pass out ALL of the time (I see spots if I stand up too quickly or climb stairs), am very lightheaded, panicky, my stomach is upset, I'm soooo tired, and I had two panic attacks in three days which is not normal for me at all. I'm also popping ativan like it's going out of style.
I'm waiting for my doctor to call me right now but I also wanted to know if anyone has gone through this with an MAOI. I didn't have any withdrawal from Nardil and I took it longer than 6 months.
Thanks for any help you can give me. I have a feeling I might have to go back to 30 mgs and then go to 25, then 20, etc. That's going to take forever....
I just want off this drug!
