In reply to Giving Up Some Meds Making Me More Tired, posted by Phillipa on November 22, 2005, at 23:47:44
Withdrawals can be weird...especially with SSRIs. Fatigue isn't uncommon. Plus, you could be having some sort of re-bound fatigue/depression that was being taken care of by the drugs. For example...I once had mild depression, but I had this *sense* that it would get more severe (I've been getting these epsidoes since I was 11, so I'm pretty good at that kind of guesswork). Anyway, so I took Celexa, and it didn't really help. And then...I stopped taking it. BAD idea. Intense depression, woke up with panic attacks, etc. I re-started it then tapered, and it was better.
