Yes, it is worth it. I too was in your same position about 7 days ago. I say days because that is what this is, one minute, one hour, and one day at a time. I had a friend text me every hour on the hour because all I wanted to do was give up. I stopped watching the news, made me really hate people even more. My family have backed off since I have asked them for A. Patience or B. Leave me the F alone. Most have chosen the latter which is fine by me (less Christmas presents).
Please don't give up,
Michelle

Hi Ready,
Been thinking about you (worried actually). Hang in there Kiddo.

Thanks Michelle,

I've never been so up and down so drastically. Yesterday was better than Saturday night and I hope today will be better. I'm so grateful for this forum/site, I have no idea what I would do without everyones support. Still here.

Are you still on it or are you going through the withdrawal?
Not the same doctor that prescribed cymbalta gave me welbutrin just to take the edge off while coming off of it. The zaps, manic aggression, hot cdld chills made me feel as if I was a junkie. After two weeks I had a clear head again and a new found appreciation for life. The first time I was taken off I suffered a self inflicted gunshot to the chest that caused me to die twice, but was blessed enough to still be here to maybe help you. I still have occasional brain zaps and now chronic PTSD anxiety because of the gunshot and the ct scan confirmed I was having brain zaps at the time of the gunshot. Talk to your doctor to help you wean off, cold turkey isn't safe. Hope this helps and stay positive.

I'm on withdrawal.. Unfortunately I don't have insurance any more because of family issues so I don't have a doctor to prescribe me anything less than the 60mg that I was taking. Otherwise I would have gone lower and eased off. Today is a really bad day. I'm home now with my parents but it isn't ideal so I might have to leave and go somewhere else for a while. Just confused as to what I should do. :unsure:
