Default Please help!! Ssri made rls bad, will this subside?

Hello,

Ssri made rls bad. Will this go back to my normal rls level? If so, how long.
Anyone have experience of bein on tricyclics like nortyptiline with rls? Did it make it worse? If it made rls worse did it go back to normal?

Hi canagirl

You might find this link helpful - it seems that discontinuation of SSRIs (and SNRIs) is recommended for people who have been diagnosed with RLS:

Hi Canagirl,

That must have been a very unsettling experience.
Has your RLS returned to "baseline," no longer made worse -- or has it continued severe?

It's been a few months since you had written this post. I hope it has quieted down for you.

To Our Healing!
