Hi all,

My first attempt was an utter fail. I ended up crawling back to my 60mg dose after only 3 days of 30mgs. My doctor was like "youre going thru withdrawl" like it was no biggie. Let me tell you I literally thought I was going to die. Crawling around the house to take care of my toddler daughter. My body was in so much pain, sweating, shaking, headache, could barely see and my stomach was in knots and I had terrible anxiety. I felt more depressed then I ever have my whole life.

So after a few weeks of feeling ok I am back at it. No issues the first 2 weeks of 150mgs of Wellbutrin and 60mgs of Cymbalta. This is my fourth day of 300mgs of Wellbutrin and 30mgs of Cymbalta. So far I have a slight headache, heartburn and the runs. In 2 weeks I am suppose to ween down to 30mgs every other day and then off completely per my doctor. I am so nervous. What if I have to go back??

I feel like my doctor is flying blind yet slightly not shocked that I had withdrawal. What the hell ya knows? I feel so stupid that I was even on this drug but at the time my depression was so bad I just wanted relief. I never thought I would know what a junkie feels like without a fix. How terrible!!! Makes me feel so mad that I am addicted without my knowledge that it could happen. So mad!!!!


Is the heartburn normal? Its driving me crazy.
I will check back with an update soon.
Thank you for input and support!
