Anxiety & Homeo.
Hi I am suffering from Anxiety disorder , with muscle tension I used Duloxitine 20mg for almost 5 years. I decided to stop. But the withdrawal effects were bad, hence I smoked weed for my anxiety relief I smoked almost 5 times, I feel very better and helpful but I want to completely cure it with Homeopathy so I visited a homeo doctor he prescribed homeo medicines, last when I smoked cannabis was 2 weeks ago. Now I am yet to start homeo medicines can I start or will there be any interaction of homeo medicines and cannabis Which I smoked 2 weeks back ? he prescribed for Anxiety disorder.

hi ! u have said that u have been using duloxetine for 5yrs and stopped it suddenly,first of all u should not stop any long using medicines suddenly, if stopped suddenly definitely u ll have withdrawl symptoms, they should be stopped under the guidance of a doctor, because if u use any drug for long yrs, body gains affinity for those and it desires to need it to keep its function nrmly, so when u stop feeding it, it shows withdrawl symptoms, so to stop it first u have to replace it with other ones and gradully decreasing the dosage of existed ones.
and u have said that u have smoked weed 5 times for relief, which causes same affect as duloxetine but in a different way.
Next Steps
u said u have last smoked weed 2 weeks back and u feel better. now just wait util u get the symptoms back and then u can start using homoeo medicines.
Health Tips
dont take weed like that and spoil ur body, its just like taking antidepressants in crude form, nothing much, it weakens ur nervous system still more as the antidepressants do on long use.
