I didn't know where to put this, but this forum is the most active so sorry if I'm in completely the wrong place!
I just wrote a reply to another post, including this in my post:
I'm having these really scary flashes of anger/rage. A couple of days ago, I was putting my hair into a ponytail, and it wouldn't GO. I completely lost the plot, snapped 2 hair bands, wanted to hack all my hair off and slam my face in to the mirror. I didn't do any of those things, just raged and slammed around for a bit, then cried a lot in frustration.
About half an hour ago, I found myself screaming obscenities at a learner motorcyclist who was riding like a complete f*****g t**t, and wanting to run after him down the street to kick him off his bike. This is not good :wacko:. I'm suddenly remembering all the 'moments' I've had in the past, and realising that even if the sertraline didn't rid me of anxiety, it did keep my rage at bay!
Sorry, didn't mean to go on - have you experienced anything like this? I'm wondering if I should mention it to my doctor, I've read that if you start getting irritable/angry(!) whilst coming off these pills, you should report it. On the other hand, I've been like this in the past so maybe it's just me returning to me...
I stopped taking setraline 9 days ago, after approx 2 years, cold turkey. I'm really starting to worry about this rage!
Any advice would be most welcome!
I better go before I chuck this laptop out of the window for having a far-too-sensitive touch pad... and now i can't get the b****y italics off arghhhhhh
