Withdrawl symptoms with the flu


Recommended Posts

I'm just wondering if this happens to anyone else... I have the flu.  Every time I get ill I start having withdraw symptoms from my SSRI.  I get the brain zaps and my ocd gets worse.  I am wondering if running a fever changes the way my body absorbs my medication.  It is horrible.  I get really agitated, etc. The withdraw is worse than the flu symptoms.

Any thoughts?

Many Thanks.

It might not be withdrawal, more likely the fact that ur sick and run down ur anxiety is up. I get physically anxious when I’m sick, I had a throat infection recently and was having lots of physical anxiety symptoms despite not having anxious thoughts about being sick or anything, it’s the defences being down in the body I think.x
