@catharineistrying: Right now isn’t great. Like in a different way than normal. I don’t think we talk about medication withdrawal enough. Sometimes our own doctors don’t know much about it. That’s why I’m so grateful to every single person that shares their stories online when actively going through it and also after going through it. It’s so important to share our real experiences - because the amount of times I’ve gone from crying, to being angry, to laughing, to feeling like I’m on fire, to wanting to run away forever - all in the span of what feels like a minute…is alarming. I know this is only temporary. But I hope if you are going through it, when you see this video - just know you aren’t alone. And if you’ve been through this before, I see you. I’ll be back to me soon, it’s just going to take a minute or a few weeks 😅😭😂 #lexapro #medicationtiktok #withdrawal #mentalhealthmedication #MentalHealthAwareness

I was put on a med first time ever end of April. I don't think it's helped as best it could apart from giving me awful food cravings and makimg me fat. I now don't recognise myself. I have read many horror stories and it frightens the life outta me trying to get off them. This makes me sad as I was put on due on sudden anxiety.

Be sure to withdraw VERY SLOWLY. Withdrawal is very hard. Are you starting a new medication while withdrawing from the old one?
