Hello Everyone
I have been on Zoloft for over 4 Years....When i previously tried to go off i had Zero Support from My Doctor....so when my withdrawl symptoms started his response was that i should start taken them again....I ended up in the E.R terrified somthing was really wrong with me! All because the doc told me that there was NO withdrawl symptoms! so i ended up taking them for another 2 years. It has been 5 days off now...and I feel like a zombie,Sick to my stomache,In a fog I cant function people ask me a simple question and im sitting there"Duh"... But the scary thing is Im a C.N.A Iv'e thrashed my body lifting patients in and out of beds, wheelchairs etc. i have torn my rotator cuff and ruined my back. all this time i thought i had a high pain thresehold..HA! since stopping Zoloft every joint in my body kills.. my shoulder feels like it's on fire and my back? Im hunched over like a little old woman. Can anyone tell me if my ability to handle this pain will get better? Also i have weird numbness in my fingers?? I just really want to be able to handle my life and emotions without this drug Thanks
