So Sick

I think the med withdrawal is pretty much over, but I am so sick. I can’t eat anything. I get hungry, I eat, it comes back up. Every time. I’m sure it’s stress. Right now I’m sitting here trying so hard not to vomit because I have anti-anxiety meds in my stomach and I need them.

Yesterday was unbelievably high-anxiety and volatile. I won’t get into it because I’ll just go insane. Trying to find the lessons in all of this. Failing.

Oh, also, I’ve been up working since 3:00am.

    I’m so worried about you… Let me know what I can do. *hug*

  2. Don’t worry. This can’t possibly be forever. Right?

    Nothing lasts forever, woman. Good stuff *or* bad stuff. At the risk of spouting pointless platitudes, this too shall pass.

    I am hoping the med withdrawal is almost over for you; it’s astonishing how sick that can make you. I’m not comparing my experience fully to yours, as everyone is different, but I had a terrible time going off of Effexor back in 2002; no one at the time warned me how hard it would be, and I had to hide all of the withdrawal side effects from my employer, which made everything that much harder. Hang in there FG!
