So
if you've read klines blog..you may have noticed I have suffered with
depression since pretty much Kline came out and started stressing me
out. 😜 The stress of red skin syndrome caused my depression to go
insane. Literally! So about 3 years ago I started Paxil to help me cope.
Now
that Kline is doing so much better and we are getting our lives back, I
have been trying to get off the Paxil. Well, wouldn't you know, big
surprise, call the presses! Paxil has a terrible withdrawal.
If
you just stop Paxil and possible most anti depressants you may be
prescribed , you will go insane in the membrane! I am talking take me to
the insane asylum asap insane. So, I tried weening...but I went way to
fast. I cut my dose by half...then a few weeks later half again. Coo
coo reducoo!!! My anger went out of control , my mental state was just
not normal. I literally would either just get insanely angry or I would
be balling all day for no reason. I was finding the Paxil withdrawal was
way more intense than my depression was before I started Paxil.
Lucky,
I found some great Paxil withdrawal support groups and I found out that
I was not the bitchy witchy I thought I was, it was the withdrawal (
well, mostly the withdrawal 😜). I also found out that my withdrawal
could take a year or more...going down 1 mg at a time every 4 weeks. I
got the liquid Paxil because trying to cut the pills was not easy and my
dose's were never the same. So, if you are trying to ween of Paxil.
Find the groups on Facebook and follow a very slow withdrawal weening
process!!!
While
trying to ween I was introduced to a high quality essential oils, wild
orange. ( not available at natural food store, the ones at natural food
stores are not the same quality) I started taking it 2 drops under
tongue in am) and I was amazed at how much smoother my withdrawal and
depression was going. I was extremely surprised when I accidental ran
out of my wild orange and my depression and withdrawal got a million
times worse. I reordered my wild orange and made sure I ordered 2
bottles so I never ran out again. I truly think this has helped not
only my withdrawal but my mental well being.

Depression
is so depressing! And it can be fatal, I have had the thought of ending
it all. But I must say since I started using wild orange I haven't.
Sure I still have crappy days, I still get angry and sad but I am much
more even than before I started taking wild orange.
I
wish I had started using wild orange before I started using Paxil..... I
am learning that pharmaceutical medications have so many side effects
and so many drugs put you into a withdrawal, that I am now looking into
medicinal's created by Mother Nature and not man.
I
wanted to share my experience with my wild orange essential oil in case
I may help anyone else with depression or if you are having a hard time
getting off your anti-depressant. Essential oils may just make life a
little more bearable while you ween!
