    HI STEFAN.

    NO THEY WANT ME TO TRY AND STAY ON IT A BIT LONGER THEY THINK ITS SIDE EFFECTS AND SHOULD SETTLE DOWN IN A WHILE AND ALSO STAY ON THE SEROXAT.

    IF SIDE EFFECTS BECOME TO UNBEARABLE GOT TO GO BACK TO GP, SO I THINK IM IN FOR A BIT OF A BUMPY RIDE NEXT FEW DAYS, FINGERS CROSSED IT IS ONLY THE MIRT SETTLING INTO MY SYSTEM.

    TAKE CARE

    HIYA, HOW YOU DOING, STILL WITH THE LINDEN, HAS IT HELPED YOU AT ALL, I HAVE LOOKED INTO IT BUT COULDNT AFFORD IT EVEN IF I THOUGHT IT WOULD WORK.

    I DONT FEEL ANY BETTER ALL THE MEDS I TAKE AND I STILL HAVE THE SAME OLD SYMPTONS, I NOW THINK ITS JUST SOMETHINK I WILL HAVE TO LIVE WITH.

    I AM HAVING A FEW LAGERS AND THAT CAUSES ARGUMENTS WITH MY HUSBAND, IT JUST GIVES ME SOME RELEIF FROM THIS OTHER WORLD THAT I LIVE IN, SO I DRINK IT OUT OF HIS SIGHT BECAUSE IF I SAT AND HAD A GLASS OF LAGER ALL I GET IS EARACHE ABOUT HOW YOU SHOULD NOT BE DRINKING WHILE YOUR ON THE MEDS, YOU MIGHT OF GUEST HE DOESNT DRINK IN THE HOUSE BUT THEN AGAIN HE DOESNT HAVE ANXIETY.

    SPEAK AGAIN SOON

    HI STEFAN,

    YEAH, THINGS NOT TO GOOD HERE, FUNERAL WEDNESDAY.

    ANYWAY DID YOUR DR STOP THE VENLAFAXINE???????????

    YOU SOUND AS THOUGH YOU HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING GP, THINK MINE WAS JUST TO QUICK TO DISH OUT THE PRESCRIPTION FOR SEROXAT, IM STILL WITHDRAWING FROM IT OF MY OWN CHIOCE, THE INFORMATION LEAFLET SAYS 10MG A WEEK SO THATS WHAT IM DOING.

    CANNOT WAIT UNTIL IM FREE OF IT AS I THINK THATS WHAT CAUSING THE STRANGE FEELINGS IN MY LEGS.

    IT IS SO HARD TO EXPLAIN THE FEELING AND TELL THE DR, HE JUST SAYS ITS THE ANXIETY BUT I KNOW MY OWN BODY AND I KNOW THIS IS NOT ANXIETY.

    YOUR NOT FAR WRONG WHEN YOU SAY ABOUT THE CRAWLY FEELING.

    SO WHAT YOU ON NOW.

    TALK LATER GOT A BLINDING HEADACHE DOWN TO THE BLOODY DOGS BARKING EVERY TIME THE WIND BLOWS THE LETTER BOX CLICKS.

    OUT OF CURIOSITY HAVE YOU GOT FAMILY

    TAKE CARE SPEAK TO YOU LATER ON

    Hi Stefan,

    Not spoke for a while, how you feeling, where you up to with your meds. Im not to bad after the sudden death of my brother in law, he died of blood poisoning but as yet they dont know how he got it, my sister looks so lost without him, I hurt like hell to see her like that. But they say time is a great healer. Im am still on same meds, but I want to reduce the seroxat as I think its them thats causing all this fizzy/crawly feelings in my legs, I got down to 40mg from 50mg and its more copable but still there, but because of things at home have just left my meds alone, will try and reduce again when im feeling a bit stronger.

    Hope your feeling more positive

    HEY, What is clabpram or did you mean citalopram, yep tried that one.

    I know what you mean about the appiontments, I had took 3 overdoses in a year, went to the dr and told him i was feeling suicidal and he rang the psych from his office and got me an emergency appiontment, it just goes to show what you have to do to get anywhere.

    I didnt want to die it was more a cry for help, as I felt I was getting no where and what ever I took made no difference.

    You could always phone the place where you are going and tell them you need to see someone now as you feel you cannot fight it anymore and feel like giving up.

    That might help, but yeah I know all about the waiting game, you want help now not in months time.

    Take Care let me know how you get on

    Stay strong

    Colette xx
