Yes, I have withdrawal symptoms when I forget to take my meds. I'm on ciprelex and wellbutrin. Once I didn't take them for 6 days and I had strange buzzes in my head and a really weird fuzzy feeling. My psychiatrist said it's normal. I try not to miss but it happens.

Withdrawal is evil and worse than my bpd or depression or heartbreak especially from buprenorphine
