Anxious -
Thanks for the warning. I'd love to hear more about your experience with SSRIs -- obviously
not good.
Right now I'll take a 2 year miracle. I feel like the rebound can't be worse than the two year
yhell i've been through. My plan was to stay on an SSRI until I'd been stable for 6 months --
every doctor I've seen has said you should give these drugs at least six months -- and them
taper off very gradually. I've learned my lesson about that one with the hypnotics and
benzos.
