I feel i am going mad! The only way I can explain how I feel is to say that it feels like vertigo - when you go over a very high bridge or look down from a very tall building. This wave comes from nowhere causing a momentary blackness, my arms go numb from my elbows to my hands and my feet do the same, I then get this awful feeling of butterflies in my chest and stomach. After a while it passes but it certainly doesn't seem to be going anywhere fast. How long will this go on? I am on Homeopathic treatment at moment.

Re: Charmaine (# 20)
Hi Charmaine. Ek was op Cipralex vir 3 Jaar en dit het goed gewerk. My Apteker het voorgestel ek gaan op lexemill 10 MG en dit het beter vir my gewerk en was goedkoper. Ek het net elke Twede Dag gedrink. Drie Dae voor Paas Naweek drink ek my Pille maar raak vir 8 Dae verskriklik aggresief en voel ek kry ontrekking Simptome. My Vrou het per ongeluk vir my Cilift gekoop wat ook Depressie behandel. Ek het dit 8 Dae gebruik en was veskriklik agresief. Gelukkig Krap ek in my Tas en kom op die Mazamil af. Glo my ek het my Ou self gevoel . Hoop dit help.

Don't go off Cilift without assistance from your GP. I've been on it for over 10 yrs and this month, due to a financial disaster (soon to be over, just a couple more days I keep telling myself, lol) I was forced to go without my meds. I'm on day 23 and tonight I'm sure I'm capable of murder. Deep breaths, keep busy... I get these electric-type shocks through my body from tome-to-time, almost like my adrenaline trying to kick in. Horribly off-balance. I try to avoid anything that could irritate me. My poor, poor family. Just a few more days...

Cilift is good for you. I used it for almost 2 years now. The moment I stopped using it, is when I realised why I started using it in the first place. Aside from the weening symptoms, I again became irritated and very emotional. Cilift just helps to keep a balance.

Hi
I'm currently trying to wean myself off cilift. My doctor said I must take a whole tablet every second day for 2 weeks. Then every 3rd day for 2 weeks and so on till I'm completely off. The head ache's is bearable. And they come and go. Sometimes i take a nap when they are too bad but when they are mild I go and work. Do something positive then it passes after a while.

that's exactly what i've been doing, now on half every second day but towards the end of the second day, i have this very weird physical sensation, like dizziness. I don't feel like I need it psychologically anymore, but physically my body seems to have become used to it because I have this crazy dizziness if I don't have it.

I was on cilift for about 8months. Igained so much weight. I'm still using tripeline at night to help with the anxiety attacks. I stopped using the cilift about a week ago and I'm really feeling sick. My head dizzy I'm moody my blood pressure is low. Is it dangerous just to go of cilift? Anything else that I can use that will not make me gain weight?

I have gone off Cilift 2 months ago. Besides the mood swings, I don't have any side effects save for the weight gain around my midriff. Will my weight stabilize or do I need to take other steps to reduce this tyre I've put on!
