[kj] Re: seroxat (OT)

[pr 001]

seroxat is evil shit. and very addictive as you say. i recently came of a 
30mg per day dose cold turkey and for two-three weeks it was very tough, 
particularly the first four days which i can't describe. the manufacturers 
test it on rats or something pointless like that and conclude it's 
non-addictive but it's just plain wrong. yeah, i got that "car zooming 
through your brain" electric shock sensation. horrible. anyone thinking of 
going on it or is suggested to by their doctor think again coz you'll 
probably regret it, possibly very deeply.
