Doc decided I should come off my escitalopram which I have been taking for a year and a half for anxiety.
I was told to take one, 10mg, every other day, I didn't like that so I decided to take half, 5mg, a day. I had my last tablet 1 week ago after seeing another Doc when I went for a repeat, and he said 5mg was almost a homeopathic dose so I should just stop taking them and ride it out. I thought he might have given me more tablets and I could have had 5mg every other day.
I feel like crap. Nauceus, light headed, dizzy, shooting feelings of numbness/pins and needles in my head. I feel the Doc made the wrong call, obviously he doesn't know what this feels like!!
How long can I expect to feel like this?
I read 12 days somewhere, I hope thats wrong!
