> Dear Ann,
> I'm tapering off of 5 meds now, one of which is an AD. Withdrawal symptoms from an SSRI are very real as you're finding out, some people are more sensitive than others. My doc has me tapering very slowly, I don't know what your starting dosage was but it sounds like you went too quickly. Can you find a doctor who is more knowledgeable about SSRI withdrawal and perhaps put you back on a low dose to relieve your symptoms? I'm sure you don't restart a drug that has brought you such misery, but once your symptoms were gone you could taper down at a slower pace (with support). Take care and good luck.Judy said it all. I agree completely.
