๐Ÿฅฉ I believed the food was safe. It wasnโ€™t. ๐Ÿ’Š I believed the meds were safe. They werenโ€™t. ๐Ÿง  Iโ€™ve survived SSRI withdrawal โ€” now Iโ€™m tapering the right way. ๐Ÿ’ธ I thought the money was real. Itโ€™s not. โ‚ฟ Sound money for a sound mind.
Hello there. It's been a couple months. I'm three steps down in my ssri hyperbolic taper...only 30 more steps/months to go. A few rough days, but mostly doing well. Added some red light therapy into the mix as of yesterday, and loving it already. Went with sauna space so I can feel the heat from the incandescent bulbs instead of led lights. Also following a #peatstr diet and it is really making me feel good. Much better energy levels. Which is nice, since these stupid meds can cause such fatigue.
When I learned that Spotify was putting out AI crap, I realized I wanted to go back to listening to music by collecting albums, listening in analog, and appreciating music one album at a time instead of an onslaught of streaming music. Building back my vinyl collection one album at a time. Damn...they've gotten more expensive over the years. But it's a better sound and a better immersive experience when you pull the LP out of the cover, clean it, place the needle over and gently put it down. I love it!
I shared this video with my therapist and requested that she watch it, so she can use that info while I work with her during my three year taper coming off of an ssri. She watches it, and understands, and I'm so grateful I am building a team to support me through this. If you are wanting more info on the effects of these drugs, how to safely come off of them, check out outro.com They are building an amazing library of resources, and I'm incredibly grateful for them! #ssriwithdrawal #hyperbolictapering
