Thank you so much Sept. for sharing your experiences. NOOOOO, I'd never try cold turkey!!! I'm feeling badly enough now.

I'm still going to talk this over with my GP but I found some info online that is apparently going to be a book soon called "The Road Home." It has a tapering plan as well as using supplements (which are extremely expensive) to build up the body while doing so. (http://www.theroadback.org/antidepressants.htm) Have you ever seen anything along those lines?

I'm feeling like starting a campaign to MAKE pdocs give more info to their patients before prescribing a drug AND the possible side effects AND how hard it would be to get off them. (But my goal has always been to be an advocate. )
