Hypersensitive Nerves

Does anyone know what cause your nerves to become hypersensitive or why it happens. How big of an influence does ssri's have on the nerves and hypersensitivty. Can you do it to yourself without drugs ?

I stopped zoloft after 2 months cold turkey then started back on it a 100mg then stopped again. Knowbody told me how to take this drug. Got a real bad reaction then symptoms went away. 11 months later develped chronic stabbing pains in my head were talking having pain every minute no joke. Had them for over a year....horrible to live with. They arn't going away......getting worse. Pain meds won't touch it. Been in perfect health my whole life till now.

The stupid docs said i did this to myself, to its all my aniexty, the more i think about the pain the more i get pain, I'm obessed about the pain thats why it won't go away, its my OCD thats causing the pain which i don't even have, you don't have pain your just looking for attenion, its only pain get over it, get on with your life and grow up......this is the crap i'm hearing from docs, therapists, family you name it......what a bunch of bull****. There is no way i did this to myself....the phyciatrist is sitting there showing me on his ssri diagram of neurtransmitters and what mine our doing to cause this pain......but YET....the drugs zoloft/ssri that work with these same neruotransmitter.....didn't cause the pain....the drugs had nothing to do with it. How ****ing stupid are these people it is so obvious what happend. Seretonin regulates pain in the body....i took zoloft which affects Seretonin....had a bad reaction....11 months later PAIN.......OH NO the drugs didn't do this......thats like seeing a bank robber go into a bank...take the money leave.....and sayin to yourself......OH there is no way thats man with the ski mask in the middle of the summer took that money there is NO WAY.
What a joke.....

My advice to people is use drugs as a last resort....exercise everyday if you have to and value your health more than anything, i've lived off this moto and have never had a health problem till i walked into my phychirtrists office in a major depresson after finishing 8 years of school. Pushed me into taking zolft in my vulnerable state and the rest is history. I took Toradol for my pain....now i've had a stomach ache for the last 2 weeks and acid reflux which i've now been presribed another drug for which i'm not going to take. I think by next year i will have tried every drug on the market if i'm not careful....with a flood of new condidtions which i know don't tell me....I CAUSED..not the friendly brain damaging meds that the medical community knows nothing about but yet pushes them onto any person from back pain, to depression which isn't real, to headaches.........and to piss me off even more....the solution to all this crap is....well yes....antidressants...the mircale drug for everything. I'm pissed....i'm really really pissed right now. I've said this before.....these people prescribing the drugs are really Nazis in their 2nd life experimenting on the healthy. I hope they all burn in hell.

ZOLOFT.........

Re: Hypersensitive Nerves

Shun, have you ever considered looking for alternative treatment such as accupuncture, reflexology, or visiting a naturopathic doc to see if they can help you with your headaches?

Sensory overstimulation is common in withdrawal.

Re: Hypersensitive Nerves

Psychiatrists are absolutely the wrong kind of doctors to go to when you have discontinuation syndrome. Have you tried seeing a neurologist?

Head pain has, thankfully, not been one of my symptoms, but I am hypersensitive to noradrenaline and acupuncture has helped me tremendously.
