11 weeks complete torture and misery with no end in sight! Is their any hope?


[Ma...]

Recommended Posts

I really need some help I'm losing hope! I don't know what to do with the Zoloft and this misery and torment is more than I can stand! I feel like I'm dying and losing my mind! The torment and torture is taking its toll on my mind and my body!

 

The constant numbness burning intense pressure in my head is relentless and unbearable! Everytime I tense my head up it's like some has my head in a vice and has taking a corkscrew and stabbed my brain and just keeps twisting it and buzzing like an electric current in my head and ears!

 

The extreme confusion DP/DR and horrible evil intrusive thoughts are so very scary! Even setting here writing this my head is just burning and numb with this dull sense emotionally and nothing but an evil cloud of thoughts in my head my lord I can't breath!

 

All I can do is set on the couch or on the floor at my moms feet and cry and rock back and forth in constant torture and misery! I don't think I can make it or I'm gonna survive this is so bad and no end to the torment in sight! I'm losing hope and I have several other health concerns like quitting smoking and othe things I can't mention on here but my chest feels like it's gonna explode and I can't breath and my mind is filled with so much evil and all the bad that's gonna or could happen to me and all the suffering ahead! I mean it's been 11 weeks and no improvement still in severe acute benzo WD and I don't know what Zoloft is doing to my brain this is misery and I just want my life back but I don't know if I'll ever smile again?

Hi buddy, I know what you're going through, and I know it's really hard to see the end of the tunnel in you're position. But trust me, all of this will go away. You need to be really strong during this period. Right now you're in the middle of the worst this poison has to offer. This is where you need to prove that the drugs can't beat you. You're already doing better then I was, at 3 months out I couldn't even see or write. But here I am, healed and more alive than ever. And so will you be. Just give your body time to heal. You'll smile and laugh again, and much much much more. Stay strong buddy.

It's so hard to believe I'll ever recover or ever be the same and have the old me back ever again! My symptoms and the damage these drugs have caused have taking over and ruined my life! 11 weeks out and no improvement if not worse! The pressure and physical pain in my head is more than I can stand and is relentless and never ends! The emotional symptoms are pretty horrible too and it really does feel like I'm dying and I'll never heal! All the evil in my head all the torment and torture mixed with the other issues I'm having to deal with and it's just to much! It's gotten to the point that even trying to distract myself with anything doesn't work nothing but pure misery and torment both physically and emotionally in my brain! And I still don't know what the Zoloft is doing to my brain? I wander if it's making some of this worse especially the intrusive thoughts or emotional symptoms.

I'm sorry you are going through such bad symptoms. I can remember feeling the same way at 11 weeks out. I knows its hard but you will get through this. Ive had some really good months, and I did start to feel like myself, and you will as well. This month for me has been hard, but I know it will pass. We are all healing even if it doesn't feel that way.

YES there is hope.

 

I was in the same place you are at one point.

 

I stopped taking Zoloft because I think it gave me worse anxiety. You can try to taper off it.

 

You're going to be ok! Just keep toughing it out! Rock back and forth and cry on the couch all day until you feel better!

Yeah this is the worst thing I have ever been through in my life and Xanax by far trumps anything else I have ever experienced up to this point in my life! I've been suffering from these crazy drugs since may of last year! First it was trying to reinstate Prozac that didn't work then it was lexapro for 6 and a half weeks and then another 5-6 weeks of horrible WD and then the kicked to it all was Xanax! I had no clue this drug could do so much damage and cause so much destruction but it has and it did and on top of my other health issues I still have to figure out what to do with this Zoloft mess! Nothing but constant torment and torture and like I said the worst is the constant pressure and physical pain in my head and the evil thoughts that cloud my mind it's all madness and I just don't know if my mind and body can hold up?
