CT off Ativan at psyche hospital, ripped off Zoloft, put on Mirtazapine and Gabapentin am in desperate shape and could anyone help

Hi lily,

 

Sorry you're suffering so much. I had a really bad time trying an AD after I CT'd it's been horrendous, so can relate to how bad you feel. Your body has had a huge shock and is trying to adjust. You think you won't make it, but you will. This will pass, try to distract as much as you can. IT WILL PASS, IT WILL PASS.

 

I haven't got any experience of the meds the sadistic doctors have now put you on, and not sure how long you have been on them so unable to help with advice on them, they could be making you worse unfortunately. Hopefully someone will have a better knowledge for you.

 

Just wanted to let you know IT WILL PASS!!!

Came home on 15 mg Mirtazapine been on  for about a week. Came home on 1200 mags Gabapentin, was taking 400 before I went in. Had a previous prescription of Klonopin and started slowly taking it at .0125 mg every 2.5 hours to stop WD and tus CNS damage. Mirtazapine seems to be the problem..... can I start taking the sertraline again without stepping up or can I start taking it at 200mg again?

If you do reinstate Zoloft start at the smallest possible dose. See here:

Do you think so even if it’s been less than week since they took me off sertraline? I know serotonin syndrome terrifies me.

Lily,

 

There is a reply from me under “Bad hospital experience”

 

I’m not good at this website yet.
