I did stop having the physical depression, coming off the med. It all started with the common cold. The joys of having a neurological illness, on top of it all.
I do agree, for many people, if these side effects didn't occur, maybe more would use the AD's that are out there.
The original poster, 5 years!!! FIVE years!!! There's just got to be a better formula, out there. There are things, about being on Ad's that I do like, but overall. There's things that I need to be able to experience in my life, and maybe it's something some need to deal with, you mention aggression, as coming off a med...darnit all!!!
I felt it necessary to go back to my Doctor. Why wouldn't I have?? Why should I have to put up with the things that I was feeling when I went on the med???

Sure you don't have to put up with the feelings, just don't take them is the answer, or lower your own dose till tolerance if found , something you don't want to do. I haven't always taken AD,S survived on benzos and booze for many years. I was being begged buy the medical proffesion to go on ADS but I didn't take there advice, now I carnt drink because I have half my guts missing with the fall out of booze but it was cool while it laster you get a good 10 year out it if you fell the need to try an alternative.
