Bibi Lynch felt that anti-depressants weren’t as effective as other tools she learnt to lift her low moods, but she wasn’t ready for how hard withdrawal would be (Gemma Day)
Today, after being incredibly sharp with a workman, after leaving a voice note telling a friend I really hate my life, after really hating my life and feeling a terrifying panic rise and try to punch out of my chest, I made my best friend FaceTime me. I was overwhelmed by how out of control I felt – and I needed to see and hear her.
As I spoke with Helen, I catastrophised in real time. I raced through the list of spiralling thoughts I’d written down to talk to her about. After “ex-friend”, “homeless again” and “please let him be alive”, I came to the last note on my notes: “Coming off sertraline”.
“Is this it now? Is this me off the drugs?”
