Dealing with Antipsychotic Medication Withdrawal Symptoms

I didn't have mine for about a week and I felt like, absolutely wacky it felt to me like someone had just took a scrambler to my emotions (I take vraylar)

I've been stuck in panic mode for the majority of 16 days.

I take several medications at high doses. It depends on how long it has been since I've taken my meds on how withdrawals go. If it was just waiting a little too long to take my morning meds after my night meds the day before, I have a killer headache for the majority of the day. If I miss it for a day or more, I'm nauseous (and I vomit), my head hurts, I get dizzy, I hallucinate (I take meds to prevent hallucinations during episodes of mania), and my symptoms come roaring back with a vengeance (my depression, anxiety, and everything with my bipolar) and then everyone around me is unhappy. My suggestion is to wean yourself off, but under the supervision of your doctor. Never, ever, EVER stop taking your meds without a doctor's okay (unless you are having an allergic reaction).

It lasted a week and it worse at first

I’ve taken them (seroquel).. I kind of just weened off on my own. 3/4 of original dose for about 2 weeks.. then 1/2.. then 1/4 etc until I didn’t need them anymore. I would recommend speaking with your prescriber before doing this.. don’t just stop cold turkey. It’s not worth it!! Best wishes 💕
