> Hello to all in HappyLand! This is my first post, and I have to say Thank God that you guys are here! I came here so many times when going through withdrawl and panic, and reading all your trials and tribulations helped like no one else possibly could! I just stopped taking 150mg of effexor two nights ago, and I'm taking 10mg of lexapro instead, and today I sleptwalked through the day. Can't figure out (for a change) if it's withdrawl or the new med, or a fabulous combo. My worthless pdoc said give it a few days so your body can adjust. Great.Thanks. I'm sure my two kids (2+8yrs old) wont mind MOMMIEZOMBIE one bit! Should I brew some espresso,pop some diet pills, or visit my friendly neighborhood crystalmeth representative? Does this sleep affect end soon? If so, please let me know. Till then, Thankzzz
Hi there, its going to take 3 or 4 weeks to see where you really are. You will probably have some withdrawl from the old med mixed in with side effects from the lexapro. Like lil jimi said the effexor has shown to have bad withdrawl symptoms. If you only get tired from this you are lucky. Not trying to scare you but things could get worse. But they will pass!!!!! Hang in there and keep posting. This board gets slow at times but you can go back and look at old posts that have great info. GOOD LUCK AND TAKE CARE!!!!!!
WAYNE A special shout to lil jimi, are you sure you suffer from depression!!!! TAKE CARE!!!!
