Ecstacy, Marijuana & Alcohol Use Recovery Posted: 07-10-05 03:58am
Hi there,
after several years of use of ecstacy,
alcohol & marijuana, 2 years ago I
fell into depression. I started taking an
antidepressant called remeron for almost 2
years and recently (1 month) anafranil.
I also experienced severe anxiety and
panic in social situations. As a result I
became very isolated from social
activities. The worst symptom was the
headaches. It's been 2 years and I still
have those headaches. I've been clean for
2 years which is great but the headaches
are worrying me. Any advise on what to
expect and do would be appreciated.
Cheers...

Maybe get a mri and see if your blood
pressure/blood sugar levels are ok. You
might have fried something upstairs.
They put everything in extascy now days.

Going next week for the mri. Blood
pressure and blood sugar levels are ok as
I had 2 blood tests in the last 2 years.
I've also had a cat scan with nothing
showing up. I've decied to get the mri
cause I know I can view the brain in more
detail. Really curious what possibly
could be happening up there. Hmmm.
I'm sure it's something minor. Anyone
else with suggestions would be welcome.
Cheers

Just a thought... I too was on anti
depressants and got the same symptoms.
Later I found that I shouldn't have been
on them period. I'm not saying to quit
them yourself but you may concider talking
with your doctor about trying to ween off
of your meds and to try to do it on your
own. I did and I feel excellent.
Good luck!

I have been put on 5 or 6 different anti
depressant and I do not take them.
Because first I don't like how they make
me feel. Well everyday I wake up with a
headache. I only took them maybe the
first couple of days the doctor would
prescribe a new anti. My headache is
usually around my temples and my veins
with throb. This the same type of
headache you are talking about?
