It depends on the severity of your depression, I'd imagine. If your doctor has you Tapering off the AD, because cold turkey is a dangerous venture, then you'll be monitored.

I'd highly doubt, just 1 week later, it would just come back to where it was?! Not sure, not a doctor here. Just personal experience.

When I took an AD, I was dealing with depression, in talk therapy, and was losing my mom to cancer and in the process of a divorce, at the same time.

When I came off the AD, mom had already passed on, my divorce was finalized, I was in a new job, about one year into that job and I was doing much better in my emotional life.
