well, the withdrawals from the cymbalta were horrible but i finally got it out of my system. I was/am still on klonopin 2X/day but I STILL have jaw pain even with the nightguard...so i went back to the psychiatrist today and i asked him if he had looked into adding buspar with ssri's to counteract the bruxism and he hadn't even looked into it. i was crying, frankly i am suicidal, i hate school, i have panic attacks daily, chest pains, lethargy, no highs at all. I feel like crap all the time and when it gets worse, i feel worse than crap. So you could say that when i feel "like crap" i am having a good day. On top of it all, I am doing school full time and starting a part time job because they raised tuition and didn't increase the financial aid and to top it off my 15 year old cat (the love of my life) was diagnosed with chronic renal failure and hyperthyroidism. Its too much!!! I can't handle this. I told the psychiatrist that once the cat dies, I go with her. I am tired, I hate living like this, meds don't help and neither has anything else. I have no quality of life. He decided to get me back on cymbalta regardless of my low tolerance for SNRI's or anything in the serotonin receptor family...he's afraid of suicidal ideation and having it happen on his watch, i guess. its a legal liability (i am in law school).

i am at the end of my rope (figuratively). I don't need a reply, I just need to vent. Thanks for reading.
