I'm very scared. Here's why: I'm currently taking 3 different antidepressants: Trazodone at 50 mgs, Lexapro at 30 mgs and Desipramine at 25mgs. I want to get off of them all, but I'm terrified.
I've seen several different psychiatrists, hoping to find one who would help me come off. The reaction has pretty much been the same every time... they say they don't recommend coming off (even if they'd only met me a few minutes before), as if I'm destined to stay on these drugs for the rest of my life.
I've tried a fairly slow taper before and had bad withdrawal effects. And that was with only one drug and now I have three!
I wish I could prevent these symptoms. Does anyone know how?
