Hi,
Thanks for using healthcare magic,

I have gone through your history.

You should have taken psychiatrist for detailed evaluation and proper dosage adjustment. You should not do it on yourself.

Your psychiatrist will decide whether you require further medicines or not and if not, how to reduce it or omit it.

Sudden stoppage of Anti depressant drugs after use of these many years may cause withdrawal features which are usually temporary in nature. But in some case it may last longer.

Meanwhile you can do stress management and yoga for better control over depression.

Thanks.

hi
u should not be worried.just continue the medications as adviced by psychitrist and start some nonpharmacological therapies like meditation and relaxation.

Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Reduction of dose might unmask the symptoms of original problem....
Withdrawal symptoms can occur - because of the long duration.

You are right to taper slowly / you can prolong the intervals between the changes and/or cut the amount of dose reduction each time / in case of symptoms, go back by one step.
It is always ideal and advisable to do these things under the guidance of your doctor..

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
