Stopping antidepressants can be difficult for a number of reasons.

Not only is there the risk of the underlaying depression and anxiety symptoms coming back but also the fact that disconinuation effects can appear in a guise that looks like the symptoms they are trying to treat.

Hope you are able to work it through with your appt.

Thank you. Yes I looked on web to get some info and its pretty much as you say. Quite horrid but I need to c if I can do without. Not depressed but angst through roof. X

Not what you're looking for?
