#lexapro withdrawals

Medication withdrawals are wild. I stopped taking lexapro (not by my choice) about 3 weeks ago. At first it was physical symptoms, like being ridiculously overtired and sometimes nauseous and sometimes muscle aches, now I'm in the mental stage where it's anxiety, extreme sadness, rage at the tiniest thing, it's weird.
It's scary and tough, but I know I can get through this. For the first time in years, I'm actually feeling emotions again, like PROPERLY feeling them. Sometimes they're a lot at once but frankly that's because lexapro blocked my receptors for said chemicals, as it tends to do from what I've heard from other people. I feel like a person again, if that makes sense.
I dont feel numb anymore. I definitely needed it at the start (summer 2020) but after I left an extreme stress environment (April 2021) that's when I started feeling numb. And i thought that was NORMAL.
Anyway withdrawals big stinky but I'm gonna come out the other end better

I am so excited!!!!!!!!
1. The Lexapro withdrawals are officially over, I believe. Now my world and mind aren’t constantly clouded with darkness and negativity.
2. I had a lot of time to focus on writing yesterday and Daddy even helped me flesh out some of the plot last night - he was soooo helpful, I was shocked.
3. I’ve already had some time to continue writing today and I got more of the backstory and main plot outlined.
4. My goal is to get it fleshed out and the first ~30 pages written by Friday. Friday is the deadline for a writing contest that I am determined to enter!!!!! I could win $$$ and publishing 😨😩
I will make my goals happen! 😏🥰

I haven't had an actual genuine real honest to God conversation with someone in meatspace since late 2018 and I think maybe now is finally the point of no return for my brain

thinking stupid thoughts. check the reasoning – a machine which operates on guilt, or on fear of future guilt. said machine doesn't want to exist, actively. the owners numb both the guilt and the desire to cease existing with a medication. the addition helps, the machine stops desiring self destruction. but it's drive to decrease future guilt gets messed with. it doesn't operate well. production gets messy. subsequently, the owners of the factory would want to stop the med, right?
i'm checking lexapro withdrawal side-effects.

We’ve moved away from burning rage and suicidal ideation, into hornier than I’ve ever been in my lifeeee
Today I sucked daddy’s dick while I was at work and then when he went to the store to buy lunch, I had 3 back to back orgasms while watching videos of him and ended up having to use his wand to cum 2 more times because all my other toys died and I was still horny af lmao 🫢😵‍💫🫠🤤😈😬

I know this isn't my usual meme page stuff, but
I'm on withdrawal from Lexapro
Lexapro (escitalopram)is an antidepressant antianxiety medication I was prescribed by a doctor. I am off it and I can't describe how it feels with words
So I tried to explain how I feel in an image
Here is the image
Tumblr media
I feel like I'm losing my mind
Like everything I do is masking, like there's a monster that takes control of my face
I'm forgetting basic words, I got lost on my way to school today taking the same route I've taken for two years
I feel like the objects I focus on are still and sunken, while the world spins recklessly in all directions in my periphery.
Sometimes I can hardly stand, I feel like a stranger in my own body, I lose track of how to breathe
This is a prescription I was given by a doctor, who said it would help
I was not offered affordable options for therapy
Despite asking repeatedly
I was given lexapro
Which I dutifully took
It took away my ability to feel joy
Where I used to have exuberant, beautiful, ecstatic excitement every day, about so much
It took it away from me
Periods of sadness were strong too, but they were fleeting and manageable. Lexapro leveled both. Sadness seemed weaker but more present, and my happiness so delicate and fleeting
So i tapered
Went down from 10mg to 5 for a month
Then I ran out
I feel flashes of disorientation and panic all the time now
I don't know who I am
There are a lot of antidepressants and antianxiety medications out there
I think they can be so helpful for some people
But my doctor gave me this one
With some of the worst withdrawal affects of any of them
And I tapered per medical advice
And I still feel like this
Don't take Lexapro
And wish me luck

Ahh just realized I've been going through SSRI withdrawal the past few days 😰 I thought maybe covid or PMDD or my body was rebelling from my week of alcohol and weed use, but no I'm literally in withdrawal 🙃🙃🙃
