I have been dealing with 24/7 dizziness and tinnitus for 2 years. I’ve been to ENT, had brain MRI, Chiro, etc. I’ve been everywhere. I’ve been on 4 different SSRIs, no relief.

Around Easter of 2025, I had been on Wellbutrin for about 12 weeks. I saw an ad for L-Methylfolate and tried it. I took it before bed, woke up the next day with all symptoms gone. I stopped taking Wellbutrin, and continued to take the L-Methyfolate. For 3 weeks I felt the best I ever had in my life, until everything came back again and been “stuck” ever since.

I’ve tried taking both again and it has not worked. No doctor or anybody has been able to tell me why that worked

I’m about a week off Auvelity. The first 3-4 days, I felt great, thought I would have no issues coming off this. I’m a little over a week with no meds and it’s been hell. My whole body is numb. It’s hard to walk or drive. My chest hurts. I’ve had racing thoughts and restlessness. Rage. How long should I expect this to last?

Been dealing with this for 2 years. Been everywhere. ENT, all the tests. No answers. No one can tell me anything. This was all brought on when I started Prozac 2 years ago. When I clench my jaw, the ringing gets significantly louder. I can clench and unclench it quickly and the high pitch noise goes on and off. Recently, the high pitch starts when I open my mouth to chew my food. Is this inner ear related? Vestibular related? Nervous system?

I’m sure this is asked all the time…. I’m on day 13, noticed a little bit of boost and improvement. How long do you think this will take to really kick in? Do you wake up one day and you can tell it just works?

I haven’t been on this sub in a while, trying not to “fuel” it. I’ve been everywhere- ENT, Chiro, MRI, massage, hospitals, doctors. For the last 2 years I’ve been chronically dizzy and had tinnitus 24/7. This all came on when I first started Prozac. I had taken Lexapro and Wellbutrin, but they didn’t seem to do anything. Prozac brought on all these rapid side effects. I’ve been off Prozac now for about 3 months, all side effects still here. I wake up every day feeling hungover, and as if I never slept. I’m exhausted with no energy to do anything. I’ve been off all meds for about 3 months and it’s all spiraling. I can barely work. I can barely drive to work. My legs feel numb and I can hardly feel them under me.

The toughest part is, my job and family doesn’t understand it. This is a pain that people can’t “see”

They tell me quit be anxious, be happy, all that shit.

have a beautiful wife and two beautiful healthy kids. Very grateful.

*** I do want to say the only time I had relief in these 2 years. I was coming off Wellbutrin. Saw an ad for a supplement that I thought would work. It was L-Methylfolate. I decided to quit Wellbutrin and take that. The next morning, all symptoms were gone. I felt INCREDIBLE. That lasted for 3 weeks and then back to misery. Does anyone think the methyfolate and Wellbutrin interacted well but the Wellbutrin was then out of my system in 3 weeks?
