Hi all,
I was just wondering if anyone has suffered extreme irritability when stopping escitalopram? It's been about a week now and the usual symptoms are apparent but I have found my temper is like that of a mad man! Not great with an 8 month old daughter either! I’m assuming in time they will pass but a real pain now as I dislike shouting at people ha!
On the whole I’m beginning to dislike ssri’s…My weight gain has been phenomenal but before I suffered with ptsd/gad I was the most laid back person imaginable…And now it would seem I’m the polar opposite. I can’t help feeling these drugs, despite how they can help with anxiety symptoms, may do more harm than good in the long run…….
Be lucky x
