I’m down to 3.2mg and the brain fog/ drowsiness is still too much, I’m tapering down slowly to either get the right dose where I can sleep 8 hours and be useful in the morning or come off completely if not, what dose did anyone on a low dose stop having the day time drowsiness?
I was a heavy vape/snuss user for almost two years, usually alternating between the two, I quit cold turkey 5 weeks ago today but am still suffering from brain fog, I do have windows where it’s better but it’s there most the time, I had this in a previous quit attempt which went after I relapsed, I’ve had blood work, cardio tests done all come back ok just looking for some guidelines to when this fog will eventually subside?
I have tried a few medications, currently tapering off mirtazapine and have propranolol to take as required, I was curious to know which medications actually worked for people? I know diet exercise, sun exposure, limiting stressors and sleep are factors but I’ve had this dialled in still feel like a need a cruch, I’ve also tried fluoxetine and sertraline couldn’t handle the sides either
I’m on 3.75mg for sleep & appetite but through the day sometimes I feel like I’m in a day dream, forget what I’m doing, struggle to think, anyone else had something similar?
For those who’ve quit for a month or so past or present and notices issues with blood sugar after the quit, how long did it take for ur levels to normalise?
Has this diet actually made any life long sufferers of anxiety better?
Has this med actually helped anyone’s anxiety? If so what dose?
30M 5ft10 75kg- was a heavy chain vaper, 600-800 puffs a day 20mg for over two years.
Quit cold turkey two weeks ago today, first few days couldn’t sleep/nausea, that’s subsided. Now I am tired even after sleeping 10hrs, have brain fog most of the time, struggle with concentration/DPDR symptoms and anxiety is very high, for those who had extended withdrawal symptoms, how long did it take for the symptoms to subside?
I’ve already had blood tests, ECG etc, all come back fine, look forward to hearing other people’s journeys & hopefully success story’s
Day 7 since I put the vape down, I felt a calmness in the first 24hrs but since then my anxiety seems to be worse? I’m doing my best to stick it out but that 1 hit is tempting
On a low dose 3.75mg mirtazapine, quit vaping a week ago (I know the quit can make you tired as I’ve done it before) but it feels like when I first started the med all over again with the day time fatigue etc, could it be the vape was slightly counteracting the mirtazapine?
