Even if you start wellbutrin, you will still withdraw from the other. Who prescribed this to you? These are all questions you should be asking your doc.
Thank you. Yeah, I need to speak to a doctor. Unfortunately, my therapist situation is a mess but I might be able to see her if I try. I'm on citalapram. I'm going to ask my family doctor and see what he says and suggests for me. I wonder if Wellbutrin is a lesser evil bc I have a bottle of that and I was supposed to take it with my other one but I didn't want to add more drugs when I'm trying to come off them!
Do you see a psychiatrist for meds? Honestly the citalapram is one that has pretty tough withdrawal symptoms if you don't wean correctly. GP's often don't know how to suggest appropriate weaning schedules. Wellbutrin is supposed to be one that is not hard to get off of because it reacts completely different than an SSRI and SSNI.
I do. However, my psych is through my school and, as I just graduated, I'm no longer eligible for her services. So, I'm kind of in a lull right now where it's either my family doctor or nothing. Ugh. I'll ask him and see. Thank you!
The coffee just finished brewing and there's a cuddly cat on my lap.
I also woke up thinking today was Saturday and then suddenly remembered that even though graduation is over, we have one more day of school.
I received an email from my father telling me that the photos I posted of the two of us on FB are the only birthday & father's day presents he needs. Awwww

Please do and don't wean without being monitored by a doctor! I don't know the withdrawal symptoms for citalopram, but I know that there's a chance of bad ones and it's best to be under your doctor's care just in case.

I wouldn't at all! I hate even missing it bc of how rough the symptoms are when I do! I just was wondering how long the period would be when I eventually do (after consulting my doctor).

Okay good. I'm really good at worrying about people doing this stuff without their doctors because I see a fair amount of that, and med refusals some days but not others, and see how it can mess with people. So now I know I don't have to worry.
After reading the note from my sister, I am alternating between laughing hysterically at things that aren't really funny and choking back tears. I have a crushing weight in my chest and a sense of impending doom.
It is entirely possible that something positive will come of this, but I'm so wound up in negative emotion (after all the fights and incidents and manipulations) that it's hard for me to see the positive.
...and my husband just talked me in to holding off on takeout until tomorrow. It makes sense because I'll be able to enjoy it more on a day I don't have to work...but now we have to decide on dinner tonight, which will involve grocery shopping, and he's not being helpful with suggestions.
I think I'm going to turn on some music and practice deep breathing.

How about if you let him do the shopping and dinner prep?
(((SwimDeep))) Enjoy your evening as planned. You need it, and deserve to relax.
For me, yardwork, errands and a BBQ on Sunday are my only weekend plans. That's okay though! I also have to familiarize myself with the game schedule for the World Cup so that I can plan my BBQ's, and time at the pub accordingly.
I'm arching my eyebrow and giving you a LOOK. If I'd known when you first started weaning that you were doing it without a doctor I would have yelled at you.
SwimDeep make the decision that's right for you tonight. I don't like the way YH decides he knows what's best for you and talks you into it. If you need to not cook tonight, don't do it (whether that's him cooking or you two getting takeout). Big hugs, too. I'm sorry your sister sent you something so upsetting.
I am excited. Tonight some friends are coming over for Spanish food. I'm making Spanish style chicken meatballs in sofrito, Patatas Bravas, (spicy potatoes) and salad. I also have a large pitcher of sangria chilling in the fridge with lots of fresh fruit.
Tomorrow I am taking my Dad go karting for a combined Birthday/Father's day gift. It will be so much fun.
Did someone say sangria?
It's my favorite summer drink wine and drunken fruit. How can you go wrong.

Too late.
That's why I'm not yelling now. Treat yourself well lady!
pinkplasticdoll yeah, the Braves game is the only exciting part of my weekend...I was really refer to the rest of the lazing boring shit I'll be doing for the next two days.
mags I've written off the guy. Haven't heard from him since last weekend. He said he wanted to see me again but then never planned anything. I know he's on vacation with his kids this week but that doesn't mean he can't drop a random text here or there.
Everyone who wants to come to the pool is welcome. Get your ass down here doglove !
