    Every nerve is fried. My heart is beating so fast, and the nerves in my neck twinge. I teleport around the apartment, quantum, fleeting. Electricity courses through my body in waves.

    SNRI withdrawal is wild. 3/10, do not recommend. (A 3, because sometimes it feels like my brain is in freefall and it’s almost pleasant).

    I’ll be fine, I have the meds now. The woes of executive dysfunction and supporting a local pharmacy that closes on Sundays. 🤦‍♀️

    My one last morning volunteer shift is tomorrow, so up at 4am, off at 6am, start at 8am, finish at 12pm, should be home by 2ish-pm. Rest. Cleanup Wednesday in prep for MIL visit from Perth. Then TAFE on Thursday and Friday.

    This turned into a ramble. Enjoy lol

      SNRI withdrawal rates 0/10 in my books. I remember having constant brain zaps and feeling like a completely out of control bag of volatile emotions. Probably nothing about it felt good because it fucked up work so badly. Hope you manage to get back on track asap. I would risk going to a chain pharmacy to avoid SNRI withdrawals in the future…

      Hope you feel better ❤️ I’ve had the “brain zaps” before and it was super unpleasant.

        Ty 💜💜💜 It’s not my favourite experience, that’s for sure. Not even in my Top 50.

        But least it isn’t painful, just unpleasant as you said

      Sorry for how you’re feeling. I’ve heard withdrawal symptoms can be awful.

      I hope you feel better soon!
