Errrr ... I want my Bear! [THUMP] ... Oh well, sleep is beckoning anyway.
I feel different. I've been entirely off the Zoloft for a week now, and I can feel my personality shifting. I feel more creative, and my senses seem amplified. Granted, I only notice this change when I'm not noticing the strange withdrawal symptoms (headache, forgetfulness, and a really wierd spacey disconnected feeling). I've been on the blue pills for 5 years, 4 years w/o psychiatric regulation. I've been cutting back slowly for a few months, and everything felt normal, even the last couple of weeks when I was only on 25 mills. But now, now at times I feel like I'm so detached from my surroundings that I'm blind even though I can obviously see. I've usually felt this way whenever I'm in a crowded public place for more than a couple hours, but this is more frequent and occurs even when I'm alone. It's lessening down now ... it was awful the first few days, so I'm hoping this isn't a long term thing. Maybe this is what I experienced before the medication, but I was just used to it. Zoloft was just a crutch. Will my anxiety come back full swing, or have I outgrown it?
Book I am currently reading (in small daily increments): The Highly Sensitive Person. Good book.
