So I take a medication called Lexapro, and recently I had to take more of it because of how crazy my job is making me. Or rather how crazily anxious my job is making me. So once I quit, I decided it would be a good idea to go back to my regular dosage.
looks like that was a bad idea because I’ve been having dizziness and flu like symptoms and just generally feeling bad for the past few days. At first I thought maybe it was diabetic symptoms, maybe I was getting sick, or something else… But once I looked up this with drawl symptoms for Lexapro I realized it was probably that. My stomach has been messed up, I’m tired, feel like I got hit by a bus, but then I also feel slightly flush, and my throat has been hurting quite a bit. So basically everything that it was mentioned on the withdrawals that I looked up.
And I’m fairly certain it was that because I was feeling very bad, but then I took the medicine for the day at my normal dose and I’m already starting to feel a little better. So I’m thinking it’s that.
I thought that I was maybe even super dehydrated or had some kind of food poisoning, so I’ve been sucking down Gatorade for two days and even that didn’t seem to do much. So I’m fairly certain it’s the meds. Please pray that this withdrawal season ends soon so that I can go back to looking for work.
