Coming of Lexapro

I was on 10mg of Lexapro for a while (just enough to stop the paranoia and the depression from taking hold).

I went down to 5mg for a few months, and I only needed that 5 mg.

Now coming off it completely for medical stuff and it is rough!

It's only 5mg, why does it hurt so much?

Day 4 was the worst, I was on an emotional roller-coaster.
In that one day I was so sad, furious, and laughing.
The brain zaps are the most annoying.

I have been drinking so much hemp tea and taking cannabidiols three times a day, and this has been an incredible help.
It sucks that you can't get CBD in Australia.

By day 7 I found I felt drowsy all day, this was my indicator that I didn't need the hemp/CBD anymore.
I know it's not true, but for me when pain medicines start giving me funky side effects I like to think that I'm ok without them because they don't have enough pain to work on anymore.

By day 11 it was becoming clear just how much anger/frustration/sadness was being treated by the medicine.
I'll like Melbourne, four seasons in a day.

I will suggest that you avoid caffeine, it seems to make the withdrawal symptoms more prominent.

It took 2 weeks for the withdrawal effects to be gone completely for me.

When I can, I'm coming back for you, meds!

Podcast Review - The Flop House

So it is called, so it shall be!

My sister, who usually gives good recommendations, insisted I try this one... and I hate it!
(Sorry sis)

It is meant to be a podcast about bad films.

They don't explain anything about the film they watched (and often I haven't seen).

The audio quality is terrible, ideas aren't fleshed out, and they all talk over each other.

And instead of editing the podcast into any listenable form, they just typed the layout into the description (which is just lazy).

I can't honestly recommend this and don't see it's appeal at all.
