Dizzy!

I like Drugs

Me too, but not the kind my doctor gives me.

If you are coming off your happy meds the dizziness seems like it will never go away. Remember their effect is cumulitive and as it takes awhile for them to kick in it will take a while for them to leave. If you go to the doc they will just redo your script which is their on solution.

Well, as of 1/2 an hour ago, I'm back on my meds. My pharmacist gave me a good talking to. I explained the situation, and she basically said "well duh, you're not supposed to quit them cold turkey." She explained all the side effects of what I had done, including severe dizziness, sweating, vivid dreams (which were really very cool actually), confusion, irritability, mood swings, etc, etc. It's apparently not too different from quitting heroin, alcohol, whatever. No wonder I felt like shit. I hope these symptoms go away soon.

I wasn't going to mention about the fact that you started taking happy pills. That was a few weeks ago. Once you are "hooked" on them, any variation in your daily pill popping will have an effect. You body gets used to whatever you take to alter the norm. Whether it's pills or beer, in my case or 18 pack, your body will react when it doesn't get the artificial lift.

Feeling less dizzy now. Going out for wings and beer. Gonna get dizzy the proper way. Think I'll smoke a bowl first.
