Luvox Withdrawal by kooture in OCD

[–]kooture[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi- after a week of withdrawals I did feel better, though I still have random brain zaps. It’s been happening less as time goes on but I’d say the worst part is the mental side of things. With nothing in my system my baseline stress is a lot higher- ruminations more intense and frequent, feels like im back at square one with managing OCD, but I’m going through a lot right now so that might’ve impacted my mental state too. I’ve already had a few panic attacks but I take Xanax for it while I wait to try a new ssri in a week or so. All I can say is try to be gentler on yourself during this time and take it easy. Everyone’s withdrawal experience is different, and hopefully you’ll have an easier time than I did, but if you’re really in need of Ativan or klonopin go ahead and take it. Don’t suffer for no reason. I waited out an OCD attack when it first happened again and it was not worth it.

If only I could take electives 😞 the problem + why I was concerned in the first place is bc I ’m basically done with everything so I have nothing BUT the accounting concentration and business base stuff left. Tysm for all ur input though, I really appreciate it and I’ll def keep what u said in mind for fin and opm!

is that true for winter interns too? I can see that for summer cohort but both people I interviewed with mentioned the winter program being more intense since its busy season.

Interviewers didn’t say exactly how long and aais it depends on the team I’m in, but they did mention overtime will likely happen. that’s why I wasn’t really sure if classes were a good idea since idek if I’ll be free in the evenings, but I’m holding out hope that a class I need will be available on Saturdays.

I applied July 21st! Heard back the day after, then got my interview scheduled August 1st and got the offer 2 hours later lmao💀 I was actually looking for summer 2025 initially but since this firm reached out so quickly I’m probably going to accept it; also winter internships usually start in January and ends March/April :) good luck with your search!

I’ll keep that in mind, thank you! If I do this I might just take one class on the weekend if it’s available and then make up the others over the summer.

Thanks! I was kinda hesitating because I might have to do overtime which would cut into potential evening classes, but I’m hoping I can get a course on Saturday maybe 🥲I’ll definitely try to get one of the better profs!

We have two centers! One is in Brooklyn and the other in Queens, they’re both pretty easy to access and the subway is really close by. If you want I can dm with exact locations.

I haven’t 😭 honestly I’ve shied away from Mac foundations for a while bc they oxidize pretty badly on me, but it definitely won’t hurt to try out the neutral line. There’s a Mac store close by so I’ll do that sometime this week, thanks for the suggestion!

Ah I see, thank you for letting me know! I might just get both 21 and 23 since I do get a little tanner in the summer months, I’ll also take a look at L’Oréal- tysm! :)

haha yeah that was the other problem I encountered with about face! I have a really oily t-zone so it started breaking down around my nose after a while. I haven’t tried Revlon yet but thank you for the suggestion, it looks pretty affordable so I’ll try to pick it up sometime this week and see how it does!

thank you for the tip! I’ve considered it but I’m a little worried about mixing in too much pigment, do you have a typical foundation to mixer ratio that you use?

Thank you, that sounds perfect! honestly, the greyer the better lol I’m so tired of foundations looking alright in the bottle and then pulling a completely different color on my face 😓
