HELLO EVERYONE, I THINK I WROTE IN MY LAST POST THAT I WAS STOPPING ZOLOFT,,,,O.K....11 DAYS OF WANTING TO RIP THINGS APART AND BEING SO FILLED WITH ANGER AND RAGE, I TOOK A ZOLOFT THIS MORNING. I DID EXACTLY THE WAY MY DR. TOLD ME, BUT, IT DID NOT WORK FOR ME. I HAVE BEEN TO THE POINT OF STAYING IN MY ROOM AND JUST STARING AT THE TV, NOT EVEN WATCHING IT. I HAVE NO MEDICAL INSURANCE SO I GO TO A CLINIC FOR MY HEALTH PROBLEMS AND GET MY MEDS. THERE. I LIKE THE DR. BUT HE IS SO BUSY, SINCE HE IS THE ONLY DR. THERE THAT I HAVE NOT HAD THE TIME TO REALLY TALK TO HIM ABOUT MY DEPRESSION. I FEEL HOPELESS, SAD, I,M CRYING AS I TYPE THIS.AND I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO OR WHO TO TURN TO BUT THE WONDERFUL PEOPLE AT THIS SITE.I KNOW I,M NOT ALONE BUT AT THIS MOMENT I FEEL I,M THE ONLY PERSON ON THE PLANET. SO...I,M BACK ON MY MED. AND JUST PRAYING FOR THE DAYS TO PASS AND I WILL FEEL BETTER....WHEN I AM LIKE THIS I FOCUS ONLY ON MYSELF AND I KNOW THAT IS SELFISH OF ME. MY WHOLE FAMILY IS HAVING SOME SERIOUS PROBLEMS AND I HAVE DONE MY BEST TO HELP THEM...RIGHT NOW, MY HUSBAND IS THE ONLY ONE TRYING TO HELP ME COPE.I HOPE ALL OF YOU ARE FINE...GOD BLESS YOU ALL....JENNIFER
UPDATE ZOLOFT DETOXING
Why were you looking to come off your meds?
a friend of the family told me when coming off meds you need to do it slowly
otherwise its never good. if you take two pills, take a pill and a half a day for 1 week, 1 pill a day for a week, then half a day for a week, then i heard for the last bit you should take the half pill crush it up, and put it in a glass of orange juice, dump out half the o.j, drink that, do that for 10 days, then try stopping. I'm no dr, just a suggestion
hope you feel better
HI, THANKS FOR YOUR REPLY. YOU GAVE ME THE RIGHT INFORMATION THAT I DID,NT GET FROM A DR. I WAS 100MGS. ADAY, THEN I CUT IT DOWN TO 50MGS. AND STAYED ON IT FOR A LONG TIME..I JUST FELT LIKE I DID,NT NEED THE MED. ANY MORE...I WAS SO WRONG..I HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT I NEED TREATMENT FOR THE AWFUL DEPRESSION THAT JUST TAKES OVER AND I,M NOT ME ANYMORE...I,M A MENTALLY ILL PERSON...I WISH MY HUSBAND COULD UNDERSTAND WHAT I,M GOING THROUGH...BUT I HAVE TRIED TO TALK TO HIM AND HE STILL DOES,NT GET IT.
