Please don't do cold turkey find another doctor! Cold tourney on any medications can have long tern effects worse than what you have now. Hang on and be tough with your doctor!
thank be to God that you didn't just stop them!!!! But what a dumb a-- MD for not giving you refills until you can get in to see them. That's wrong of them! And you ladies made me LOL too:) Have a super day or semi-super day:) Hugs
I've been walking around the house saying " No cold turkey, no cold Turkey" and laughing, now I'm getting some very strange looks from my mom,lmao. Maybe I will end up in the hospital today!! Lolol. I'm Kelly by the way, nice to meet ya
I didn't stop cold Turkey on my own and neither did my Dr. We had a family emergency and I had to change my appoingment. The point is I had to stop my meds because of it. The Dr will Not give me my meds until I go see her.
Good question hun... but you know it is very dangerous to stop any antidepressant meds extremely..
Only because it controls our moods and thoughts and as we suffer so much with pain all the time it can be bad .. I found out the wrong way I decided to stop COLD TURKEY and let me tell you it was almost the death of me!!!!
I agree some meds are not meant for us and we realize early on and with Dr. we decide to get off that med.
How ever to the suffering I went through was so bad I ended up in the hospital not wanting to live and that is not in my personality to give up so never do that hun ... I know sometimes the anxiety that we go through is so bad... but you know anyone in our situation would have anxiety...
I do hope everything gets under control it will have faith..
You know your body better than anyone read the signals and tell your Dr. what it is you need ... I'm sure you already do this I just feel for anyone going through this we all know how hard it is to not have an answer and medication after med nothing seems to help but keep strong hun XXOO
People think that saying cold turkey is like stop smoking lol not for us though
