I agree, Most vits have maximum dose of 6-8 50mg a day.  Even if you order a 90 day supply for personal use at say 4 a day (for chronic pain of course).  You are looking at almost 400 count (which, yeah you won't get a local Pharmacy to prescribe but it's a reality).  So, if it was 90 and they...

Hey Yaba, good luck with your efforts.  It's good to have the efxr counterbalance the ssri affects.  There is going to be a time when you'll have to go off the effexor too...but in my experience the SSRI stuff goes away in a week or two.   the wd's and sleeplessness are rough too.  it's a...

whew...long week.  So nice to hear your updates Hap. I hope your psych appt goes good.  Nice that your hubby is supportive.   I'm doing good.  About three months so far....but i'm struggling.   It's an ongoing mental battle once you are past the physical addiction.  Any addict knows that your...

just checking in....how are you doing hapgrl?   While you are tapering, the 25 mg can't be doing much for your pain.  are you able to take something else for that?    I still think a lot is in your head girl!    25mg is like nothing at all coming down from a heavy dosage for a while.  I'm...

right on hap.  Just when i was taking them, even tapering, i found that 50m a day coming down from so many was pretty much the same as nada...but everyone is different!   keep your chin up!

thanks for the update on your situation.  I feel horrible for you.  hang in there.  I'm also wondering since you are at such a low dosage right now, if you've thought about just going ahead and going cold turkey.  It seems like you're going to get the bad w/d's either way so why not just take...

oh, thanks cat...so you would say those are definitely different from the "eye clicking"?   lol

phrenicz..thanks!

so what are the brain zaps people talk about?!  I remember sometimes i'd get like body convulsions in mornings like when i'm in REM sleep)...like your leg spasms, but whole body at once....not very often, but occasionally.  But i never got that from tapering or wd'ing...so i'm curious what the...

One more thing, hap.  I know you said you are kinda doing this incognito.  Have you told your Dr?   One thing that really helped me was clonuhdyne to help with wd's and bp going off cold turkey.   With you especially going off of Effx too, probably worth checking into a sub antidep like Z0l0ft...

Well, this thread outta put a damper on those seeking Tr@mps!   I'm sure that's why it got moved to this section!   Maybe our correspondence will be enough to sway the temptation for some person..... Hap, what was your dosage before you started tapering?   I'm just curious, i tried looking at...

Just checking by.  Good to see your posts hap and cat.  Prayers are with you Hap.  It's sucks to do it, but so rewarding like cat says.  I'm about 6 weeks now off that crap and now the psychological battle....you feel so "up" and good on them you want that feeling again...and your mind tells you...

Hey Cat, just checking threads for a bit...saw this one.  Attagirl!   that is really self control!  Especially since you did slip just a bit and got the warm fuzzys from those little bastards a couple times!  BTW you are not an asshole, on the contrary.   i'm three weeks now and finally...

EXACTLY eva.  It is so easy to get back on them.  The euphoric and energetic feeling that Tr@mps give me is incredible.  Like the zinger drug of choice does to most addicts.  I've never had problems with ANYTHING until i took my first tr@mp a dozen years ago.  I have to recognize now after this...

This is a really great thread.   I found it very difficult to taper off Tr@m.  Maybe someone who doesn't have such an addictive mind could do that, but it was almost impossible for me.   God bless you if you have the willpower!   Some people that have loved ones that actually know their...

now that's funny there

Aunt Pitty Pat I love your name and pic!  

ok, so from a Seinfield eposide from way back when when Elaine was getting pee tested and got a hot UA from Poppy seeds (muffins, lol)....can that really happen you think?   

"Call of Booty" ????   yeah, wishful thinking

anybody about our age that went to a shit load of shows probably has big time hearing loss....head bangers=hearing aids (....eventually i'm afraid)
