Okay here's the thing. My diagnosis is Bipolar, ADD and depression. Last week my pdoc decided to abruptly stop the Effex, due to a recent hypomanic occurence. I was on 225mg originally, then 150mg. She then had me go cold turkey. This is worse than labor without an epidural!! First, my head is about to explode due to the vertigo experience, insomnia, weird suicidal dreams, major dysphoria, diarrhea, vomitting, up and down mood swings and I've been shaking like a leaf as if I'm detoxing from alcohol. This is the worst thing, I've ever experienced.
