When you're coming off meds

⭐️ be rootin, be tootin, and by god be shootin ⭐️ and they leave you wanting to run a marathon because you feel like something is chasing you. Probably bears. or bees. or republicans.
Hey y'all!
So yeah, I'm finally going to try to come off of Lexapro because I suspect it's what is making it really hard to keep weight off, and I'd like to see if I need it still. I got my doc to approve and help me taper off with lower dosages, so I'm not being stupid and going cold turkey. It still kind of feels like I can't sit still.
This week is spring break for me, until I start my next two classes for the Spring quarter. I managed to get A's on my past classes, so yay! And my projects for next quarter are lined up and ready to go. This week is mostly catching up on comic work, doing con preparations and making dat money.
Speaking of, I'll be at FWA! I'll alert y'all when I know for certain that I'll get the time off. In the meantime, drop me a line if you're going and would like to say hey~ Unlike last year, I hopefully wont be sick as a fucking dog. That and actually living in ATL makes life SO MUCH EASIER. Should I artist alley? I'm not sure yet... I'm torn, but I also dont know if I'm getting a room or not so drinking might be out of the question.
Anyway, I'm going to try to sleep and hope my brain calms the feck down. <3 Good night pretties~

So this thing is also a Republican? O_O Yikes.
I wish you luck on weaning yourself off your meds. My doc wanted me on Lexapro, but I ended up going with clonazepam and that's been helping a lot.
though its another like Lexapro that if I ever wanted to stop I'd have to be tapered off as well.
from what I've heard that restlessness is pretty common when tapering off of the meds. Just take it slow and little by little, monitor it and keep your doctor informed, of how things are going.
Hopefully that goes well for you and maybe you won't need it anymore =)
I felt like only a little part of my body, or several little parts of my body, were falling quite frequently for about a year after stopping that one. o.0
and enjoy that spring break! ;3 hope it gets warmer!
good luck to you! hopefully you feel great without the meds as well!
even if it IS making me gain, ill gain anyhow. im predispositioned TO gain weight by my finances, my genetics, and my physical condition severely limiting mobility
im actualy considering getting put on HGC??i think it is?
basicaly its a hormone that tricks the body into thinking its pregnant and you loose weight from it
