I was on 20mg of apo-amitriptyline for around 3 months and then around a week and a half ago, stopped cold turkey when the pills ran out. I had zero idea that:
1. There were going to be withdrawal symptoms
2. That they would manifest over a week after
3. And that it would present itself as a constant state of low intensity dull headache and dizziness, the one that is tell tale sign of motion sickness (working offshore, I am all too familiar with the sensation).
Sitting still and especially concentrating on things that require attention (like trying to learn a new language or studying) is difficult and missing out on gym just drives my anxiety.
I am keenly interested in knowing what home remedies there may be to alleviate the situation and whether anyone knows how long the withdrawal symptoms persists.
