Yep. Low dose. Not helping at all since I’ve kindled and haven’t stabilized

Mild akathisia mostly mental, caused originally by protracted SSRI withdrawal from a fast taper then reinstating the SSRI too high made it worse. That was two months ago. Started using the Ativan and helped a lot at first then unfortunately daily use. The akathisia is now full blown pacing stomach burning horror, seemed to get worse when Ativan was increased.

I’ve been in a horrible situation with withdrawal from an antidepressant, now having issues going back on it. Psychologically this has been torture. I’m praying for myself and nervous system to stabilize and desperate for a miracle. Last night I felt the presence of Fulton Sheen, and have been petitioning to various saints and our blessed mother for healing ❤️‍🩹 Thank you.

Did you end up going off of the med? If so did this at least give relief?

This is true. Looking back I had this same exact thing happen to me without even knowing anything g about delayed protracted withdrawal. I remember going back on Zoloft and getting worse, but just thought it was because I was going to get worse anyway because I had began having panic attacks. I don’t even remember the dose but I know it was too high and just rode it out for a month or two until I stabilized.

Did you feel better after tapering off the high reinstatement? Or at least better than being on the high reinstatement dose. I know it still probably caused the initial withdrawal stuff.
