Hi, I was prescribed seroxat 10 years ago for manic depression and phycosymatic pains in arms rendering them useless.
At first I was a new man, no depression, anxiety, pain, etc and all was good.
However as the years have gone on I have increasing severe insomnia to the point of "PLEASE LET ME SLEEP", aches and pains that fit into the joint pain category, restless leg and anxiety woes. In order to try to sleep I am now increasingly drinking on a Friday and Saturday night just for the knock out effect.
I'm on 30mg a day and in the past have just stopped taking them and bombed into hell.
Today I cut my pill in half with the hope to go a few months on 15mg and reduce from there.
Bottom line is I want off these pills that were sold to me as the wonder drug with no side effects and easy to stop. I dont want to replace them with a "modern" alternative that doctors say......"the wonder drug with no side effects and easy to stop"!
My wife of 25years has lived through hell with me before the pills and times when I have tried to stop and is worried I am doing the wrong thing, but my mind is telling me it is.
I forgot to mention I used to self harm....life is good is it not?
Im seeking advice as I just want out of seroxat, I want to put my head on my pillow like I remember from so long ago and just sleep and not be tormented with electricity running through my spine, down my legs making me jump and spasm.....I am at the end of my tether.
