Hi Laurie
I'm on SSRI's also (Welbutrin and Prozac) All I know is that you shouldn't withdraw quickly. I've had a withdrawal from Welbutrin but never experienced the effect you spoke of. What you're doing by cutting down slowly is the best idea until the p doc comes back. Your GP is the same way so I have to rely on myself if P Doc is away. Be careful . If you feel worse please talk to the GP even though he doesn't deal with psych drugs.
