nursedeborah's Journal

After all I have been through in the past almost 4 years now, I never thought it would come to this.

It is a good thing that I did find out what was causing me all the problems, and that I was not

someone who could not be treated for my depression, and that it turned out to be the medication that I was on that was causing all the symptoms.

The hell I have been living the deepest depression I had thought about even having shock treatment for turned out only to be the med I was on.

I have learned so much from so many different sites, and people sending me information too.

I have told my doctor abvout this, I want him to be informed. He said it's another Paxil, and I

said this is nothing compared to getting off Paxil, but I was a mess on it too!!!

I just really want to inform as many people aas I can about this dangerous drug.

It works at first, and if your on pain meds you don't think about being tired, sleepy, but guess what it does that to you. They call it "The Slug Drug" so that tells you a little something about what it does to you.

I have not been able to care for myself, my home, don't even care what I look like anymore. I don't even wear make up, and havn't since I got really bad on this crap.

If your on this, and having things that concern you, please read all the information that I will

provide. It willl take aware so many fears about your own depression, thoughts your having,

your moods, behaviors.

I now know why I couldn't get out of the house, tthe drug, again you don't care abvout anything, or want to do anything. It might take awhile being on Cymbalta for this to happen, but it will for so many..

Your not alone,  or crazy, your depression has not gotten worse, or is not untreatable, it's the drug.

I am doing better, having aome real live feelings now, some energy in spurts, some of this is wothdrawl symptoms, but I love that I am feeling something other than fear, anxiety, numb all the time. Not inmy body, in a fog, either on or coming off the symptoms all blend together, but at least I can see the dirrerence.

The withdrawls can last from anywhere from a month to a lot longer. There is some chance I wil have permanate damage from this drug, but again I will oneday have it out of my system, and that will just be so much better.
