I recently started worrying about serotonin syndrome as I'm pretty much a hypochondriac. A brief rundown of my medicene history: I took zoloft 50Mg from age 14 til I was about 20 n had to go up to 100, after about 3 years it wasn't working as well so I went up to 150 for a few days n was switched to paxil 40Mg. During spring a dr had me switch to anafranil (clomipramine) 200Mg since I had slight ocd. Didn't like it so went back to paxil. It quit helping a few months ago so I went through a dangerous stage of quitting paxil outright n going back to anafranil then back to paxil. Finally I went back to zoloft n have been back on it for around a month or longer. Then I had klonopin added 0.5 every other day to my zoloft. Hated that it was a benzo n switched to buspar 10 mg once or twice a day. I got to where I was up to zoloft 150 MG a day for a few days with buspar 10 mg a day n was worried so dropped thr zoloft to 100 (I know DONT self medicate). Well the last week or so I would take 0.25 or 0.5 klonopin once a week maybe while buspar was building up. I have been disoriented with headaches here n the n bloodshot eyes n heart beat a little fast and I was shaky. My temp was fine n my blood pressure was good. I quit taking zoloft and buspar 3 days ago n still worry about serotonin syndrome as it can be fatal. My mom (a nurse) says its just anxiety.
Any suggestions? I feel like my serotonin levels would havr dropped in 3 days with no meds or at least my symptoms would have gotten worse had that been the case. Could I even have a fatal case of serotonin syndrome from that dose of zoloft n buspar?
NOTE: I also smoke MJ
