Thanks Scott, that,s what I needed to know. I had to go out this morning before breakfast, when i usually take the med and started feeling really yuky - hard to explain - headache, upset stomach, etc - didn't know if it was from withdrawal or from not eating b-fast until later and then later coming home and taking the meds (plus supplements) That was an hour ago adn I still have the headache.
Why is benedryl useful with withdrawal? I need to get some I guess. Did you use any other supplements when you went off? I'm thinking of working with my naturopath to do Sam-E or 5HTP or St.JohnsWort or something like that if I have recurring depression. I'm a little anxious but theres a lot going on with my life right now - the pain and headaches don't help - and I need to get back to finding some more temp or permanent work and don't feel like I present a best picture of my abilities when I'm like this, but I need to find some income and insurance to cover med insurance soon. Yikes, life is a challenge right now. No partner/etc for help with decisions is a challenge when I'm not feeling up to par.
Thanks for you reply.
