Re: SSRI survivors

[Guest guest]

I wouldn't say that this group is just for fighting against the

monsters-that-be. We also provide support to each other and many of our members

are also survivors. However, there is another group that might fit your needs

better. But still stay with us; we need all the help and members we can get.

Your story can provide us with additional information that we use in our

arguments. Your struggles can help others avoid the same. The other group is:

Withdrawal_and_Recovery/

Which is wonderful and admirable, but does anyone know of a group that

Because I was actually put on these drugs, and these drugs completely

destroyed my life.

I need to find a group that discuses the problems we continue to endure

because of these drugs, and the deception and blame put on us patients

after the fact?

I feel like it is just too late for me, that I was just a casualty of

this war and sorry but nothing can be done now. It's too late in the

game and too much water under the bridge. The damage has been done, and

because of the extent of it, is irreparable.

I am a survivor too, but also a crusader. Psychotropics ruined my life too. I

was a mess, and lost years of my life.

I was a successful nurse and happy mother of sweet little boys. Unfortunately I

married a monster who abused me, battered me nearly to death. I became anorexic,

wanted to waste away. I was afraid to tell, and my doctors simply put me on

psychotropics to 'solve " my problems. I started on Paxil and Xanax, then

clonopin and prozac. When those didnt work, or turned me into a suicidal zombie,

they would try something else. A total of 28 psychotropics in a five year span,

including remeron, zoloft, effexor, risperdone, THORAZINE, seroquel,

ambien....each with a new side effect.

None of them addressed the root of my problem, my stopping eating, my broken

bones, my now fragile body down to 70 pounds.

Only when I stopped ALL of these horrible meds, my ex husband sent to prison,

and 2 years of healing can I say I am somewhat recovered. I don't think my mind

will ever be as clear or sharp as it once was. Oh, I have good days, but some

days it feels as though I am in a hazy fog. I am in remission from my eating

disorder, at a healthy weight. I tell people PILLS DONT SOLVE LIFES PROBLEMS.

ONLY YOU CAN DO THAT.

My mother also went on Effexor while I was in the hospital for my anorexia.

Imagine watching your only child dying of self starvation. I was in the hospital

for 6 months.

Anyways, she has been unable to wean off the effexor, no matter how slowly she

goes. She does keep trying, as she has also realised how wicked these drugs are.

I have a now 16 year old son, who some may call ADHD/impulsive but I call him

unique and artistic. I am happy to report that he is doing well off of all the

poisons he was on since early childhood. Hes been med free for a year and a half

and doing well. We found a psychiatrist who is respectful of my wishes for him

to remain drug free, and has never once suggested putting him back on.

There are great therapists, support groups, and internet friends who can give

you support. I personally have turned my life over to God. I have down days, as

every one does, but my sanity and happiness come from within and my faith helps

too.

I wish you luck, and feel free to write me anytime. Its never too late, there

may be damage, but your life must go on and it will get better. I mean, I am 39,

my body is a mess, but I AM HAPPY.

I would suggest www.paxilprogress.org because it is a forum with more

live feedback. They don't just deal with Paxil as the name implies.

There are people there in various stages from most AD's.

I would really suggest you stay active here and there. Both good

groups!!!!

I'm 47, I guess just continuing to exist isn't really equivalent to surviving, I

worked very hard but the job didn't work out, I had a son who is 16 now but was

stolen from me when he was 13, by my mother, the only remaining living relative

I had, and she cut off all ties to me at that same time, the only thing I have

left is my tiny disability check and the crumby roof over my head, I am not

dealing very well with the devastation of losing everything, and being so broke

I can't afford to breath, it doesn't seem worth the effort of going on because

in my situation, life has taught me that the harder I work, the more

disappointing the failure of my fruitless labors are, I wouldn't be able to

endure any more taken away from me, so I have to be very careful, I feel that

God has abandoned too.

I'm 47, I guess just continuing to exist isn't really equivalent to surviving, I

worked very hard but the job didn't work out, I had a son who is 16 now but was

stolen from me when he was 13, by my mother, the only remaining living relative

I had, and she cut off all ties to me at that same time, the only thing I have

left is my tiny disability check and the crumby roof over my head, I am not

dealing very well with the devastation of losing everything, and being so broke

I can't afford to breath, it doesn't seem worth the effort of going on because

in my situation, life has taught me that the harder I work, the more

disappointing the failure of my fruitless labors are, I wouldn't be able to

endure any more taken away from me, so I have to be very careful, I feel that

God has abandoned too.

hey thanks, I'll have to check that out,,, Sandy

Re: SSRI survivors

I would suggest www.paxilprogress.org because it is a forum with more

live feedback. They don't just deal with Paxil as the name implies.

There are people there in various stages from most AD's.

I would really suggest you stay active here and there. Both good

groups!!!!

I think my mother is ashamed of me because I never managed to marry a rich

husband
