So after my recent act of stupidity which culminated with a unpleasant hospital visit, I was released, now the thing is I had decided enough really is enough this time...

the discharging dr asked me if I was on any daily medications and I said yeah and told her (venlafaxine and diazepam - I was at 28mg a day) she asked me if I would take them if she prescribed me some... I was like 'I am so done with taking pills' but she gave me some anyway, 10mg diazepam a day (obviously a huge reduction) and the same dose of venlafaxine....

anyway, I wasnt really thinking very rationally and chucked them in the bin...


I felt fine for about a week...

then this agonizing 'whooshing' started shooting through my brain, it was so fucking painful... and weird but I decided I would wait it out...

I called my dr and asked if I could get a repeat on my propanolol (I was prescribed these for panic attacks but wanted it this time to try and control my hand tremor) which was fine and noticed the diazepam and venlafaxine were on repeat so I thought 'fuck it, I cant deal with this anymore' and caved in and ordered some more... I notice they gave me another repeat for the same amounts...

now the thing is... even tho the first week went fine... I am having horrible twitching in my hand... like really bad and although the low dose of diazepam and propanolol is controlling it a bit... it still goes wild every day and I mean it shakes ALOT then occasionally it will form like a contorted claw which is very painful and my fingers will separate!

I also hardly sleep now and keep sweating, really racing thoughts etc... and thats with me taking 20mg of diazepam a day instead of the 10mg prescribed (I would hate to think what it would be like if i actually took just the 10mg)... and the repeat is only for every 2 weeks but at my rate it will run out every week...

so my question is I guess... what the hell do I do?

What does the rest of your life look like? Those symptoms could be related to a thousand different things you got to narrow it down somehow.

You ever get your blood sugar tested? Thyroid/adrenal functioning? I mean you had a hospital visit what was it for? Did you overdose on some type of mixture?

I mean theres so many questions I could ask like are you eating are you sleeping things as simple as sleep deprivation can cause random health issues to trigger after time. What do you think it is? Sounds like muscle spasms to me I use to get them to but they were related to my adrenal fatigue. I have no idea what is causing them for you.

Realistically speaking best thing you should do is go to a doctor and get a bunch of tests done. No other real way to know whats wrong with you unless you see a doctor and tell him absolutely everything about your life.

thank you for replying...my life is far from satisfying to be honest... and yes it was a mixed overdose (intentional) but apprently all my organs are functioning with 'no abnormality detected' after several tests they ran....


so I have no clue what is causing this, its very annoying to say the least!
