...if you are lucky...
I don't mean to sound as if I am boasting. I am not. I only want to say that for some lucky (?) people,such as I (uh yeah, right) getting off of ssris is not so tough. I just got off of lexapro as easily as I did all of the other ones I ever did....cut back doses in half weeek by week. The stupid drug pooped out on me soI figured what is the point of continuing? Shrink agree. Sigh..I think I have exhausted every ssri now...sorry irrelevant to this post...
Moral: It is not hard for every person to get off these drugs. My heart goes out to those for whom it is, and I am not joking at all when I say that. So if you need to go off, you may not have such a tough time. I didn't even have a tough time with effexor. I repeat:I AM NOT BOASTING, only sharing an experience
Best to all,
Diane
