trileptal withdrawl or is it

[studio2010]

Lots going on with me, but main issue is. I feel very sick. Body sore,headache, shaking, ringing in my ears. I am also experienceing vibrations in my body. Cant focuse. I have been compleatly  off this trileptal for 4 days, started weening about 2 months ago. have you ever heard of such a thing like this? and how much longer will it take to get better? or should I be thinking its something else compleatly

What your describing is very similar to what i experienced coming off of effexor. The whole weaning process took me 5 months before i was off the drug. It was a horrible withdrawal with intense pounding headaches stemming from brain shocks/shivers. I also experienced aches and pains along with body tremors. You should speak to your doctor about perhaps clonazepam or some kind of medication to ease you through this time. It can be done. What medication will you be taking in place of trileptal? if any?

I also experienced those brain zaps,as I call them, when using and coming off Zoloft and other SSRIs. They're bad news. I've since discontinued all of them (as they weren't working anyway). I feel the same with or w/o them as to depression so why take them and go through those horrible brain zaps? Now I've stopped taking trileptal  (for mood stablizer) and experiencing ear ringing and tremors. Can one ever find something that works????

It could potentially be withdrawal symptoms but those symptoms are of concern. Speak to your doctor about them so they can let you know what to do.
