Well week two is now in full swing. I have had no major withdrawal symptoms. I have cut out the caffeine and haven't had any panic attacks as of yet. But like I told a friend, the withdrawal is MUCH WORSE than the panic attacks, at least a PA will only linger 10/15 minutes, WD lingers all day. I am so glad I didn't cave and go back on the meds. I have more energy, my sex life is back and my husband says I am more like the woman he married. I have lost 6 pounds in two weeks (which is main reason I quit meds) and I am beginning to rest better. Nightmares are slowing down. I haven't had as many mood swings. I am so glad I am beginning to get my life back.
