Now I’m really scared. I have been weaning off stuff the last 2 years – Efexor finished 2.5 years ago, Klonopin 2 years ago, Risperdal 7 months ago, mirtazapine 1.5 months ago. Everything has been done carefully, but painfully.
6 month ago I was given Inderal to help with the anxiety, as something harmless. Well, not to me. Now is the only one left (around 47mg, divided in 4 doses) and I am struggling as never. A few days ago I decided to try Phenergan to alleviate symptoms, since it allowed me to quit Risperdal and many people mention it used in withdrawals. I took 25mg by bedtime 2 days, then reduced to 12.5mg, then zero, to see what would happen. Yesterday was the first day without it and it was better than the previous. But suddenly today is pure hell. I had never been like this before. Extreme anxiety and hot flashes, pain, dizziness… I was not able to leave home to work.
Does anyone believe could be Phenergan the culprit? Or the combination of it with Inderal? Or the mirtazapine finished less than 2 months ago? Or the summing up of everything I took?
Thanks,
Bob
