Zoloft Withdrawl Is Hell!! I'm about SICK TO DEATH of hearing how great all this medication is. It has taken me 3 ATTEMPTS & almost 6 months to withdrawal ON MY OWN, by the way; from zoloft.
What is someone sopose to do when a doctor REFUSES to help them WITHDRAWAL from a drug??  It's not the doctor who goes through the side effects day in & day out. So, how can they have the slightest clue??? Reading those books just doesn't give them REALITY!! We should shove the DRUGS down them, then MAYBE they'd get it?
I am very glad that NOW, the internet exists. As the ONLY support that I have gotten to detox from zoloft has been a support group on the internet.
It is really SAD that there aren't enough doctors supporting medication moderation!! There are special circumstances where medication is needed, but it IS NOT needed as the NORM!!!
I have found that without the medication, I don't have all the PHYSICAL issues that I once had while on tons of medication. And the one physical issue that I have at this time, is being handled very simply by doing nothing more than eating differently. Just like all the anxiety I once had, I handle simply by drinking herbal tea, drawing, listening to soothing music, or a nice hot bath.
The very sad part is that the anti-depressants I was put on years ago, took MY LIFE!! They took away who I was & where I was going. And I was lost in A HAZE for years, never really knowing what was wrong until I got off all that crap!!!
And here I am, almost 40 years old; starting from square 1. But at least I know where I am going, and when I get there; I also know that I will be fulfilled!! Fulfilled, something I couldn't possibly be when drugged!!!!  |
