Keeta how are you this morning. I hear ya...I have done exactly the same thing...drink... just to shut off the noise in my head. I just hope you can get some effexor tomorrow...you will settle down and the symptoms will lessen!! Don't be so hard yourself. From what I read, you are not in denial about anything...just in an incredibly hard place with few alternatives. One thing at a time...you cannot get off Effexor and expect to be perfectly AF and lose weight.
I am not saying Yeah Baby!! Pour another...but don?t load too much at once.
I wish the Effexor withdrawal board was still running. You would be amazed at how many people posted there ...thousands!! Remember ADs are one of the most prescribed drugs in North America and all over, right now there are thousands of people just like you that are trying to kick this drug. I?ll say it again go SLOW and give yourself a chance to stabilize. There is no shame here...you did nothing wrong and you will find your way to AF AD free days where you feel alive and hopeful ...this I promise can happen....it did for me. I still have the 30 lbs! and 4 out of 7 AF days and lots of hope, because I know how low I was and will never forget that ....I just didn?t think I could get better and that I was the world?s biggest loser.....that is gone but not forgotten and Please keep reading and posting here, there are many of us that really DO CARE and can help you feel less alone.
Now you have me crying LOL :upset:... I hope it is sunny... that you can get out and maybe focus on something other than the head rushes and the anxiety...you are doing a great job of coping and the fact that you are posting here proves that :goodjob::goodjob: ...you know what to do and what you need and you just need friends to help you...and we are here!
Take care :h
