I will see my new pdoc next week and hopefully will get some answers. I am sure they are going to have a whale of a time with me. Anxiety,ocd, and gad what a combo I am.

The insomnia was something else, and the hospital I was in wouldn't give me my Ambien; they gave me 50 mgs of Vistaril so that I could sleep.
When I first started taking Lex, it made me sleepy.Somebody above posted about stopping lex cold turkey and having horrible withdrawl symptoms. I wouldn't doubt this.
I quit Zoloft cold turkey and felt like I was dying.
I couldn't walk a straight line, had a constant headache, and had auditory halluciations.i don't think it's ever a good idea to quit any psych med cold turkey.
