I haven’t been on this sub in a while, trying not to “fuel” it. I’ve been everywhere- ENT, Chiro, MRI, massage, hospitals, doctors. For the last 2 years I’ve been chronically dizzy and had tinnitus 24/7. This all came on when I first started Prozac. I had taken Lexapro and Wellbutrin, but they didn’t seem to do anything. Prozac brought on all these rapid side effects. I’ve been off Prozac now for about 3 months, all side effects still here. I wake up every day feeling hungover, and as if I never slept. I’m exhausted with no energy to do anything. I’ve been off all meds for about 3 months and it’s all spiraling. I can barely work. I can barely drive to work. My legs feel numb and I can hardly feel them under me.
The toughest part is, my job and family doesn’t understand it. This is a pain that people can’t “see”
They tell me quit be anxious, be happy, all that shit.
have a beautiful wife and two beautiful healthy kids. Very grateful.
*** I do want to say the only time I had relief in these 2 years. I was coming off Wellbutrin. Saw an ad for a supplement that I thought would work. It was L-Methylfolate. I decided to quit Wellbutrin and take that. The next morning, all symptoms were gone. I felt INCREDIBLE. That lasted for 3 weeks and then back to misery. Does anyone think the methyfolate and Wellbutrin interacted well but the Wellbutrin was then out of my system in 3 weeks?
