In reply to Re: Still going NUTS! Manic-type rages since off SSRIs, posted by Keko on November 11, 2004, at 20:46:43
Well, heres the deal.
I went off of them and was doing pretty darn good on high doses of fish oil, I got the rages anger etc for about a month and 1/2 but it did subside.
Anyhow.
I got gready and wanted more, and so tried to go back on them, to try and regain how I felt on them.
Anyhow, when I restarted things just did not work out. My mind started racing and I my mood started to cycle (something that never happened on them before) I was then prescribed lithium to take with them for a while, and this combination did work well.
To make a long story short, the rage, anger etc will subside but it will take a little while.
If it does not subside, and you do decide to restart an SSRI, I would do so slowly.
You may (many people do) find significant relief with 5-htp and b6
Best of Luck
