Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 ** This is an important symptom but it needs to be described more <<Cathrine i think what is going on with me is nervous tension i can't relaxat all>> ok will try my best to discribe Whendoes it happen? It can happen anytime What does it feel like? It feels like my whole insides are shaking,i start to stutter then it ends up with me losing what i was thinking. My husband just said it's like i lose confidence in whatever i am going to say and then i feel stupid.My mind goes blank i know what i am going to say but then when i am half way through it the stuttering gets so bad i lose it.I have never stuttered in my life. When is it worst? It is worst when i talk to anyone that doesn't know me .like when i had stepson visit on boxing day only met him 2 times hes 4 years younger than me.He asked my husband when they went out alone if i suffered from brain damage.Was it that obvious i don't know but that is my fear that people can tell and i can't hide it. Does anythingmake it better? just staying in the house away from people that way i don't have to talk to people I only talk to my husband and my mum and sis on the phone and on this group thats it my world is small. How long has it been going on? since i started to come off of paxil 19-99 2001, I was in and out of withdrawel for 2 years i had no idea how to do it and had to keep taking them then hubby halfed it to 10 mg went through that withdrawel then i halved again 5 mg got so bad hubby found franks stretchers board and i just went for it and got off there was still no withdrawel plans then I only did the 5 mg for a few days so basicaly i went from 10mg and off. When was the first time youfelt it?when i was in withdrawel and hasn't gone away. I have had 3 doses of the arsnicum think it takes the edge of the burning don't know when i am suppose to take it so i wait for you to say it is ok. I hope this explains things a bit better if you need to know more just ask. Thankyou Cathrine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, Ros. That's exactly how I was. And pretty much exactly how I am. Some things have gotten better, but I still have those vapor-locks in my brain where everything goes completely blank. That happened several times when I accidentally ran into someone I knew in a public place. I'd be talking to them and suddenly realize I didn't know who the person was or where I was and I would literally freak out and just excuse myself and get the hell out of there. I'd have this strange sensation like, Why am I talking to someone I don't know?? My mind would just be blank. But that doesn't happen as often anymore, but then like you, I have a very narrow world.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 Hi Glitter, Do you remember me telling about that lady who phoned me from the lawyers office,well she asked me to go find the paxil box so i could get the exact date i was put on paxil.I went into that little medical box to get it and i saw the little plastic box with the days on it that had my paxil in 4 little quarters still in it.I have got these stupid thoughts going round in my head that if i take it that all this will stop.I feel like i am still a paxil prisoner and if i take it my memory will come back all the pain will stop and i will be back to my self but with no feelings.When that thought comes i can just picture you coming through my computer screen and wringing my neck.I realy know if i touch the stuff i will end up dead but thats how desperate i feel sometimes.I know jay the young lad that has trouble is having all the same things going on in his mind i cant even talk to him i have no way to help and tell him hes going to be ok.Hes like me crying in the dark not feeling sorry for himself but looking for a way to fix himself .

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 When that thought comes i can just picture you coming through my computer screen and wringing my neck That's a GOOD thought, Ros. Yes, I will do that to you! Taking more Paxil will not help you. I can assure you that the worst parts of this do get better. It just takes a while. What else did the lawyers say about that form? Why don't you e-mail me so we don't have to bore the other posters with our lawsuit hysteria. Or call me. Or send me your number and I"ll call you.
