It’s Monday and a good time for me to brush off my good ole brain and start strategizing my path. I’ve known since I started on this site that I would need to taper off duloxetine. However, I came here in active WD from a doctor’s decision to remove 2 SSRI’s. (This was done without my input).
The support I’ve gotten here has been singularly amazingly helpful in my recovery. In the beginning (here) I was so angry that I wanted off the Duloxetine too. @Catina wisely suggested to me that I wait until I was finished with the WD that brought me here.
I’ve entitled this post “Beginning again” because I (as I posted before) I recently had another 🤯 epiphany about myself and self care. Now that I have forgiven myself (AGAIN!), I’m ready to face the reality that it is not only Duloxetine that i need to taper, but possibly 2 or 3 other meds,
Dr. Sorensen has given me good advice about which meds to target for first taper. Duloxetine.
I’m going to hang out with my current recovery before I start. Meanwhile, I’m making some life style changes regarding how active I’ll be in my healthcare.
Thanks for reading.
