As some background info, prior to this weekend I had titrated up to 260. I had actually reached 250 a few weeks earlier but I had to back it down because it was affecting my performance at work. At high doses I find myself kind of tounge-tied, similar to the slurring of words that occurs when I am intoxicated (I was afraid my bosses and co-workers would think I was drinking at work!)
As you might expect, SEs are pretty severe. The only new one is hearing weird imaginary noises, very disconcerting at first but I have gotten accustomed to them by now. I am also having some difficulty typing this because of my visual "blips" and muscle twitching in my hands, but these were SEs I had previously experienced (so please forgive any typos in this post).
I obviously don't recommend this for the faint of heart, but I just felt it was what I needed to do. I will need to start titrating down by tomorrow evening since I have to go to work on Tuesday, so we shall see if that causes me to relapse. I will keep you posted.
