i have been on various anti depressants for anxiety and depression due to my multiple sclerosis , it's taken months to settle on 20mg citalopram and 15mg mirtazipine but I've been drinking fairly heavily since Xmas whilst taking the meds , it was an average of 8-10 bottles of corona a day most days , I stopped drinking  once for 10 days then a month ago went back on it , I'm now on day 4 of stopping again , I'm suffering with heightened anxiety and tingles and shakes (mainly in mornings ) I'm taking thiamine and multiplayer vitamins , does anybody have any advise as to wether my fatigue and numbness/tingling are typical withdrawal symptoms after a few months of binging ? Please ?

    Ok but please be careful if you do drink on baclofen as I had a bad experience and ended up in hospital for a few weeks.

    Havent they legalised weed now in a lot of countries? I really hope you find something to help you with this debilitating illness x
