I have now been off the zyprexa and depakote for 7 weeks and the Lexapro for a little over 3 weeks. It was slowly getting better, but the last few days have been hell. I keep having these racing thoughts that my brain has been severely screwed up by these meds or that I will never get better. I also still feel slightly nauseous and dizzy and my short term memory is completely shot. How long do I have to endure this? I see my doc tomorrow and I am terrified at the notion that he may diagnose this as severe depression and return me to the antidepressants. I can't go on that merrygoround again. This all started with just an anxiety problem and I took ativan. They yanked that off cold turkey and then I went to the other drugs. I never felt this bad in my life and I am really scared. Any experience here would help or any advice on how to approach my doc would be appreciated.
