It’s been a while. You’d think with the theme that it was this fall. It’s actually from this last spring. LOL Almost a year. The kids do look the same, basically. But I guess I’ll work on changing my header.
So, I’ve weaned off Lexapro and having a hell of a time. Today, my ears are ringing and I feel very irritable and out-of-control. Any sound makes me jump nervously. I’ve read that this can happen for 4-6 weeks after your last dose. I had cut my doses in half and half and half until last Tuesday. I haven’t taken a pill since. I think I’m experiencing “brain zaps” that other people describe. I describe it as a migraine without the pain. Weird, huh?
But I’m hanging in there. I can’t feel like a zombie anymore. I think I felt better off the meds than on them. Even when I’m going through the withdrawal symptoms, I seem to feel better. So, we’ll see. I hope these brain zaps subside before Christmas. Nothing like coming off anti-depressants through the busiest season of my year. LOL
