Ok, so it's been a while since I've been on but I have a question for all of you. I went off my meds for a couple months cause I thought I was handling things fine, but my wife thought otherwise. So needless to say, I went back on my meds. However, it seems like the medication that worked fine for me before isn't working anymore. Could it be because I went off of it for a while, or am I just building up tolerance for it? I've been back on them for a month or so, and at first they seemed to work fine, but the past couple weeks have not been good. Any suggestions or ideas?

Once you go off an antidepressant they may not work when try to take them again. I've had this happen with a couple. Talk to your doctor.
