I started taking tianeptine in high doses to counter an invega sustenna injection that almost killed me.
I won't go into the details of the invega injection, but it is basically a year-long poison that blocks dopamine and seratonin, gives u low testosterone, messes up your hormones, causes high prolactin, and makes you completely suicidal for the first 3-4 months or so. I have read of people who don't recover even after a year.
I am now up to taking 5 grams of the FREE ACID per day. I don't know how much sodium that is the equivalent of, but the free acid is not as active as the sodium. It is still a lot I am certain.
If I lower the dose, I withdraw. Withdrawals begin only about 6-8 hours after the last dose, provided the last dose was a high dose.
The withdrawals are really bad and if I ever have to go through them again I think I will go to the ER. Any idea what they will give me there?
The longest I have had to withdraw cold-turkey for was one day/night, and it was not fun. I don't intend to ever go through that again.
My questions are:
1. At what dose can tianeptine kill you? I take 5 grams per day of free acid, and my liver test was only slightly elevated levels - doc said not to worry about it at all. Can it kill you in any way other than liver damage?
2. What can I do to stop taking it? I want to stop but don't want to withdraw. I have considered switching to kratom. If I try to taper, I go into withdrawal.
I am scared of withdrawal from this stuff. I take it every few hours just to keep myself from withdrawing.
How much danger am I in?
