1998 forced on cipramil *no anxiety/depression background*

Over the years all kinds of SSRI/SNRI/antipsychotics/stabilizers due to apparently side effects/withdrawal

Many attempts to quit over the years with failure (extremely rapid taper followed by doctors' guidens)

Current attempt-Paxil 20 mg:

6/24 20 mg to 5 mg-severe AKA

9/24 Increase to 20-AKA continues

10/24 stopped completely-AKA out of control

11/24 Zoloft bridge attempt-25 mg to 75 mg+Seroquel-AKA continued-stopped them CT.

12/24 Back on Paxil 10mg (0.1789g)-some stabilization-from here tapered by about 30% each time (don't remember doses and dates).

2025 - 7.10 0.0558g (3.11mg)/7.11 3% 0.0541g (3.02mg)/4.12 1% 0.0535g (2.98mg)

@Fullhealing I came across Whitney a few days ago. She and Angie Peacock did a joint Youtube vid. I've been practising acceptance for a couple of years now. Firstly I used it with hyperarousal and panic - amazing results (it took a long time - one day I physically felt the hyperarousal drop). I try to use it almost daily. The context seems to determine the degree of success. I'm glad you found it useful. 🤗

@Catbird you right, our mind is such a powerful tool, it can change the rules of the game here, though it's a sisyphean task that requires strength that sometimes we just don't have, we must keep on trying. It's quite new to me, I used to resist mostly which made things much worse so definitely going to practice it.

So very glad it helped you, thanks again, it can help many others who are suffering 🙏

@Fullhealing and it’s okay to feel not ready or not up to it. First time I tried it the conditions were just right. Low stimulation environment, my partner close by, feeling safe in my home etc. The need to feel safe overrides everything else. I spent decades bracing and white knuckling and either drinking or taking benzos to get relief - it felt like the only way. It’s scary to try something new when in the midst of panic. Fighting the sensations is giving us a sense of control, even if it is illusory 🤗

@Catbird I will watch this video, but thought I’d ask since you’ve been practising this for a while, are there any books or other resources you would recommend on this subject? I have watched several videos and there always seems to be some terms I’m not familiar with or concepts not fully explained! Thanks ☺️

June 2019, citalopram 20mg started due to anxiety
May 2020-Dec 2020, tapered off with fairly large reductions but longish gaps

Withdrawal symptoms were: some anxiety and low mood; emotional instability; anger and rage spells along with self-loathing, self-harm ideation; inability to tolerate any discomfort, general exhausted burnout feeling; palpitations; flu-like symptoms, body temperature weirdness; migraines; insomnia
July 2021, reinstated 10mg - most symptoms resolved quickly - this is how I worked out I had been in withdrawal
August 2022 - reduced to 5mg, no major issues

April 2023 - began reducing further by skipping days; started to experience familiar withdrawal after a few months
August 2023 - finally discovered the withdrawal community and learned about harm reduction tapering; began crushing and weighing the pills and taking 2.5mg every day; continued making reductions more gradually

July 2024 - reached 1mg; switched to water solution method to continue tapering

June 2025 - jumped to zero from 0.2mg

There’s are book called Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach which I haven’t read.She also has a YouTube video which I haven’t watched. These may be helpful. One day I just decided to observe what was happening in my body during a panic attack and described it to myself — shape, colour, temperature and how it was moving through my body (I think it’s called a meta cognitive approach - mindfulness). By not struggling against it I it just moved through my body and dissipated. It’s so counterintuitive but it worked for me. From that day I’ve been practising. It sounds simple but it’s not easy. My brain still tries to rev me up, but I just try to observe it.

„In this video I explain the most important concept I teach in my coaching groups and with clients: Your nervous system is communicating through symptoms.

When people come off psychiatric medications they often experience anxiety, insomnia, dizziness, intrusive thoughts, POTS-like symptoms, nerve pain, and hypersensitivity. These sensations can trigger fear and send people down endless medical (and alternative health) rabbit holes.

But there is another way to approach this.
