Paxil.......Marlena

[Guest guest]

>>>>>I am progressing ok now

 

 

 

 

 

Dear Marlena,

i am so glad you are doing ok now.

 

 

 

 

 

>>>>>I went off zoloft cold turkey about three years ago because it was

knocking me out.

 

 

 

 

I went cold turkey as it was the only option i had if i wanted to get away

from all that crap, and funny enough, it was because GM had cured a kitty of

mine (yes, he also does animals as well) who had had a chronic cough for all

his 7 yrs, one pill, and hey presto. GM has since cured 5 other kitty's of

mine, and 2 goats that a month ago could only just walk around their

paddock, are now running.

I call GM the Miracle Man.

I do have one kitty and myself that he hasn't completely cured, but, some

miracles do take a little longer.

 

 

 

 

 

>>>>>When I fell asleep in a shower at the health club, I regained

conciousness

 

 

 

 

 

Boy, that must have been freaky !!!!

 

I have a **littil frend** who would spell that as, konchisniss, so much

better i think.

 

 

 

 

 

>>>>>they had called my doctor and he told them to tell me to INCREASE the

zoloft!!!

 

 

 

 

 

Doctor's, yeah........if 1 doesn't work, have a few more. Pretty soon you

don't know if you are Arthur or Martha.

 

When i informed my dr that i didn't think they were dulling the pain as well

as they used to, she said, " take 2 then " well for about 4 days after taking

the 2, i knew first hand what it was like to feel like a zombie, i couldn't

even get up to feed all my babies, and i have a few, (11 kitties, 2 dogs, 4

very spoilt pet goats and an assortment of poultry) but i did make it up to

them when those pills wore off.

 

 

 

 

 

>>>>>I told them that I was not going to put one more mg of it into my body

until my brain woke up.

 

 

 

 

 

Please don't take offence at this, but i love that part " until my brain woke

up " that is just so true. I used to think that mine was about 4 steps behind

me, now, thank goodness we walk together.

 

 

 

 

 

>>>>>My brain felt " drugged " for several more days and then I hit one of my

all time lows. The doctor wouldn't prescribe anything different. I kept

telling myself that it wouldn't last forever and that I would never give up.

I laid in bed and cried for several days, but when it was over I seemed

fine.

 

 

 

 

I am so glad that your way worked for you, i don't think i could have gone

c/t like that, i always seem to need something to, help me up, so to speak,

which is what GM did.

I still have days when i think, gee, if i have an aropax and a voltaren i

can go out and do some gardening etc, etc, but, i then remind myself of what

it was like back then, one day of gardening = 2-3 days of hell.

 

 

 

 

 

>>>>>However, I had wised up about quitting cold turkey, that is why I'm

taking it slow this time with the Paxil. I've had a few bumps in the road

through this process, but I'm convinced it's because I'm detoxing from alot

of other stuff as well as trying to adjust to the lower doses of paxil.

 

 

 

 

Another **remedy** is, DON'T laugh, crystals, (i said not to laugh)

In a nut shell: I was taking halcion to make me sleep, dr decided i should

try a new one, (can't remember the name) all it took was 1 little pill and i

wanted to murder everyone, now that was freaky, that took almost a week to

wear off, with NO sleep. When i came back to reality, i said that's it,

found this piece of paper that my late husband was using as a bookmark, all

about the healing powers of crystals, cleaned up this crystal and put it

under my pillow, had my best nights sleep in yrs. I don't need it now, but

it was a godsend back then, they also **cure** other ailments.

There are actually quite a few different healing stones, i have a pouch with

about a dozen in that i keep on my bedside table. Usually you keep them on

you.

Have since found out that it is quite *normal* for some people to go for

days, even weeks with no sleep, wish i knew that back then.

 

 

 

 

 

 

>>>>>she used to make me swallow a teaspoon of cod liver oil.

 

 

 

 

 

I think that we in NZ were the only ones given a warning about c/l oil and

halibut liver oil. We were warned about 3-4 yrs ago, by the Health Dept,

that as the Atlantic ocean is one of the most polluted in the world, NOT to

consume the oils taken from the fish there. Last time i saw a documentary,

it said it was still polluted. WEIRD.

 

Take care.

 

Regards, Dorothy.
