i forgot where i was when i went through effexor withdrawals MONKEY..they had to lock me in a psych-ward and im by no means mentally ill..at least to that extent
i also had seizures coming off of......i think it was paxil or something? i am on zoloft but i swear by it...its very mild and only acts on the seretonin so it has to be good...and when i need to come off of it i can just use xanax to balance me out for awhile
i still dont like it but if idont take it at least im not fucking retarded for 36 hours

Well guys, sorry to say but I have some not so good news.
Xanax made me freak the fuck out.
It made me angry, it made me cry.
Hopefully he can prescribe a different benzo that might be better for me.
Why did that happen to me?
Is it the lexapro withdrawal?
I am still feeling sick, probably from that shit.

I was on zoloft for years and I didn't like it- didn't realize it till I came off of it.
Today is well explained in this panflit*, I didn't take it recreationally or anything, I wouldn't do that- I don't do that kind of stuff.
And If I did I am not sure if i'd like it

So, I would say that your still coming off the Lexipro. If your having the emotional symptoms still, that's what i would think anyways. That emotional deal is felt with most withdrawal. Depending on how long you had been on the lexipro your doc may have been kinder to wean you off by smaller doses.
Xanax should make you relaxed and calm for the most part. But also on the comedown you can get kinda moody too tho from my experience. But usually after a longer period then just one dose or even a couple days.
Hope ya feel well soon!

Lexapro is an ssri, mhbound.
Spacemonkey, Well, I noticed the side effects being bad and not much of positive effects. I went off of the Lexapro, which was 10mg, all at once. That's the normal weaning down thing- 10mg at a time.
Anyway, I do have emotional problems which is the reason I went on them in the first place, but I am normally not this bad.

Xanax made you angry and cry?
Man seems like you got some really deep rooted issues. Now do you know if it is a physical chemical issue? Or are you just mentally messed up?

I am starting to think it is more of a chemical issue. I am not so bad of a guy. It is rare, but reported, sometimes xanax can give the opposite effect emotionally. I felt like that crying drunk girl at a party who can't find her shoes.
