Hello Darkshaldow, I would also like to offer my welcome to you. This forumn has helped me sooo much, if even for support. Im sorry that no one has been around, and i hope that these few posts that have now been put up will help.
I understand teh frustration of changing meds. I just (two days ago) doubled my dose on Effexor, and its whacking my body out. Luckily, its helped get me out of a horrid depression and a bad bout with irrationality. (yeah yeah...I got rash...i knew it was comming - so y'all got me. Especially Shandra...)
Anyway, I have changed from Zoloft to Welburtrin, a few years ago. However my doses were so insignificant, especially on the Zoloft that i didnt expirience anything but a change for the better. Then again, im a lightweight on every med.
Well, i cant offer much, but hang in there! Do some things you enjoy, relax, and just get through. Call your doc (if you dont they get mad...) and see if he cant help you with the transition. But usually (Im told at least...I shall see with this one) it passes with tiem and transition.
We are all here for you, please please please come vent and let us know what we can do if only to tell you to hang in there.
Now--- for all of those of you (especially Sandra and Putter) who saw me break, i wouldlike to formally apologize, as is my way, and update you also. I am doing much much better. On Tues, after seeing my doctor on Wednesday and getting lectured about meds that night, I woke up mad, irrational, and out of sorts. The day became worse...and we'll leave it at the fact that at the pinacle of it all, it wasnt pretty. However, by Wednesday I was doing better aside from physicla symtptoms, and my doctor gave me some stuff for panic attacks, so that wont be so much of a problem.
I would like to thank you all for your advice, help, and support. Hopefully im through the worst for a little while - but once again, that is yet to be seen.
Thanks again all - and welcome to the forumn Darkshadow! Good luck.
