Thank you all.. I am definitely prepared for the worst regarding the symptoms of tapering. I'm going to try supplementing with amino acids along with possibly a dose of Prozac if the symptoms are too much.

I'm more curious about after the symptoms. When we would be successfully free from the ADs. I know it's impossible to foresee how I will be... but it seems that most experiences I read tend to go back on ADs anyway after quitting. Which leads me to question even tapering.

I feel I am equipped to handle depression if it rears again... yet the meds also stopped a lot of other horrible symptoms I had. I guess I will just have to see for myself.
