Ok day 5 on MIL - 25mg x 2 today
final lex dose tomorrow - 2.5 mg
Stupor should be the last thing I'd expect from a potent NE Reuptake inhibitor...
but past 3 days,and especially today I seem to enter this zombie like state where my pupils dilate to like 4 times their size, I feel cut off from the world, no worries no concerns, no nothing, nothing at all - more than zombie - cannot even think or talk - just there.
brain fog, dizzyness, postural hypotension, tachycardia...Energy levels are bad, blurred vision and general feel as though I am not able to reach my own emotions.
this seems to be just going opposite to its intended effect - to hit apathy, anhedonia and make me feel more real.
I have heard that SNRI seem to have a very shaky start.. but this is just beyond my comprehension.
thank god for the 0.5mg ativan I take as needed - takes the edge off the horrors of lex and mil.
any idea how 5ht RI of MIL measures against lex///
now theres the Lex withdrawal angle too - wonderif the 25-50mg MIL's 5HT RI is enough to counter lex withdrawal effets - I have experienced a good range of emotions after my quick taper from lex - even have had some few moments of peace and bliss..... but with addition of MIL I dont know where I am headed to...
