im writing this here because honestly i just need a space to complain hah… it's not even that serious? but basically i didn't restock on my antidepressants in time because my social phobia made me horribly scared of calling my psychiatrist. i had the courage to finally call and get a new prescription but i can only pick them up by tomorrow morning. i'm on my third day without taking them and it's physically agonising. i feel nauseous and lightheaded, too much movement makes my eyes feel like they'll pop out of my skull and my head has these little pulse sensations that make me lose my mind. it doesn't help that i'm dealing with a lot of stress outside of my depression right now, my mother put a lot of tasks onto me that are mentally overwhelming me. too much thinking makes my head hurt and with that i've been just crying for the past two days because of that pressure my mother put on me which doesn't help with the headaches. i don't feel different mentally, i would be crashing out about these tasks and problems as much even if i took my meds, just not all the while my body feels like there's something rotting inside. and the realisation that my physical condition really does depend on taking these meds makes me feel even more alienated and pushes me further and further to ctb. it all comes full circle in the end lol. this isn't normal. i don't feel normal. i cant wait to be able to take my meds tomorrow and make this stop so i can be depressed and overwhelmed without having the urge to vomit.

I've withdrawn from antidepressants a fair few times without problem. Then withdrew from Venlafaxine and it was terrible, I was so sick. I had to go back on and did a short taper off. I hope you are feeling a bit better today

that's exactly my situation, im currently taking those theyre my third prescription by now. i never had withdrawal symptoms with the previous meds but venlafaxin really messed me up. i was feeling much better once i picked them up and took them again. never avoiding a restock again x_x

SSRI withdrawal SUCKS. I had it pretty bad when my doctor kept not replying to my calls for my next prescription and I ran out. It's just extra suffering on top of what you're already going through. I'm glad you've managed to get some more now.

Yeah Venlaxfaxin is not good to just stop. I'm glad you have restocked and are feeling a bit better!

taper off ...as you can already see the drugs don't help with the depression and symptoms lead you to want to ctb

Someone got their sleep pattern destroyed after Venlafaxine?

I was sleeping so good before. Now after 2 years of quitting i still sleep very bad.

It makes me super angry 😠
